ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
There are many people and organizations who assisted in bringing
this project to fruition. First and foremost, we send our gratitude to
all the members of the Ad Hoc committee on Disaster Preparedness/Recovery
who provided their expertise, suggestions, and hours of time. Their names
are listed in the front of this manual. As with all committee projects,
there were some members who provided extra efforts. We want to especially
recognize Patrick Butler, Larry Francell, Dr. Paul Katz, Sally Shelton,
and Carolyn Spears for providing invaluable text material for the final
product. Virginia Mize, Elisa Phelps, and Sherry Humphreys also came to
our rescue in many ways. Milan Hughston and AMIGOS Bibliographic Council
staff member Thomas F. R. Clareson collaborated on the selected bibliography.
In the initial phases of the project, Dr. Katz, Sam Daleo, Carolyn Spears,
and Larry Francell provided tremendous assistance in assembling and compiling
preliminary information. Jimmie Picquet assisted greatly in drawing up
the original plan for a video conference. Our speakers for the planned
workshops will be invaluable resources: Dr. David Gracy, Patricia Terry,
Toby Murray, and Barbara Roberts.
A project of this nature requires underwriting from a variety of sources.
We are very grateful to the Institute of Museum Services, a federal agency,
which contributed funding to this project through a Professional Services
Program grant. In addition, Chubb Group of Insurance Companies provided
major assistance to the project. The Collection Managers Committee of
TAM has been supportive of the project from the beginning, and will underwrite
the 1994 and 1995 workshops. In addition, the ongoing financial assistance
to TAM of the Texas Commission on the Arts, and loyal members, enables
the TAM staff to support this important committee project.
We also wish to acknowledge those organizations and institutions that
generously allowed us to reproduce their materials in this manual. They
are: The American Airpower Heritage Museum (for the Confederate Air Force
Museum plan); American Association of Museums, Technical Information Service;
American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works; Blackmon-Mooring-Steamatic
Catastrophe, Inc.; Canadian Conservation Institute; Chubb and Son, Inc.;
McFaddin-Ward House; Mountain-Plains Museums Association; Northeast Document
Conservation Center; Oklahoma Museums Association; Southeastern Library
Network, Inc. (SOLINET); Texas State Library; University of North Texas
Libraries; University of Tulsa Library; Western Association for Art Conservation;
and West Texas A&M University.
Finally, we send a special thanks to the staff of TAM, Margaret Blagg,
Debbie Welchel, and Sally Baulch.
