"Alfaro, Vladimir" <[log in to unmask]>
Hello All,
I am looking for resources regarding the creation of a
Disaster Recovery
Plan for Physical Records. I have tried to google it,
without much
success. Any assistance will be much appreciated....

Vladimir,
When I was assigned to create a DRP for my department a couple of years back, I, too had a great amount of difficulty locating online sources for "how to". Finding resources pertaining particularly to a local government office was quite a challenge. I found it most useful simply to find examples of disaster plans, make a list of all the components, and then pick out what applied to my office. While you may not need quite the same things I did, here are a few websites you may find useful:
NARA: www.archives.gov Their various drp's are quite thorough! Also, they had a "Primer on Disaster Preparedness, Management, and Response" that I found quite useful. Use the search function to locate it.
Disaster Reovery Journal: www.drj.com
The Master of Disaster: www.themasterofdisaster.com
DERA: www.disasters.org
Contingency Planning & Management: www.contingencyplanning.com
You may also want to use keywords in your general searches for "preservation" and "salvage". These will pull up some useful ideas as well.
Most of the resources I have pertain to local government and state concerns. Please feel free to contact me offline, if I can be of further assistance. Good Luck!
