Protecting the Past-RI

 

dPlan-RI was developed under a 2007-2009 planning grant through IMLS's Connecting to Collections: A Call to Action, a multi-year, multi-faceted national initiative to raise public awareness and inspire action.

The Institute of Museum and Library Services, a federal agency that fosters innovation, leadership, and a lifetime of learning, supported the development of this online disaster-planning tool.
