Our thoughts are with the communities on the Gulf and Atlantic coasts bracing for Hurricane Ian. While personal safety is of primary importance at this time, we wish to remind collections care professionals that the National Heritage Responders are available 24/7 by phone at 202.661.8068 to provide support to institutions whose collections have been impacted by disasters. Please share the NHR hotline information with colleagues in potentially impacted areas. Resources for personal preparedness and recovery can be found at https://www.ready.gov/hurricanes.
