Disaster Depots & Manual Are Available
Should Mother Nature or another form of unfortunate disaster occur, libraries and repositories can rest
assured that the NNYLN Regional Disaster Supply Depots are fully stocked and available for use.
The depots are provided by the NNY Library Network with funding from the NY State Program for the
Conservation and Preservation of Library Research Materials.
The three depots are located in the following areas: in the Western Region - SUNY College at Oswego,
Penfield Library, Room 7A (off general storage, near Special Collections); Central Region - St.
Lawrence University, Owen D. Young Library, Park Street, Canton, located in Room 103 of Herring-Cole;
Eastern Region - SUNY at Plattsburg, Benjamin F. Feinberg Library, 2 Draper Avenue (in the back of the
library off the loading dock).
All libraries and repositories are encouraged to have a disaster preparedness plan completed and kept up
to date. "In the Face of Disaster: Preparing for Emergencies in the North Country," a self-planning manual
for disaster prevention, response, and recovery is available at the NNYLN’s website at
www.nnyln.org, and
