Log Number: LG-41-09-0009-09

The Kentucky Historical Society will partner with the Historical Confederation of Kentucky and the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives to assess the collections care needs of the commonwealth and develop a plan to provide training, support, and capacity to ensure the ongoing preservation of the state's heritage. The partnership will develop a needs survey for collecting institutions in Kentucky; develop and implement a pilot project with three to five collecting institutions for a statewide collections management plan; and conduct a series of disaster planning and preparedness workshops that will provide instructions and guidelines for writing a disaster plan and inform a process to develop a statewide disaster response team.
