Emergency  Response and Salvage Wheel:  Now an  App!

WASHINGTON, DC— Heritage  Preservation’s Emergency Response and Salvage 
Wheel  is now available free of charge on the iPhone, iPod touch,  and iPad as 
the “ERS: Emergency Response and Salvage”  app.

Long known as the authoritative resource  for salvaging artifacts after a 
disaster, the Wheel has been  used by museums, libraries, and archives around 
the world.  This new app makes the Wheel’s invaluable guidance  accessible 
to anyone who is in need of practical advice for  saving collections in the 
first 48 hours after disaster  strikes.

Apple users can download this free app  from the App Store. Simply search 
for “ERS: Emergency  Response and Salvage.” To download, your device must 
run iOS  5.1 or later. Complete technical requirements are available  on the 
ERS page at the App Store.

ERS provides the  same reliable content found in the original Wheel. The 
app  outlines critical stages of disaster response and provides  practical 
salvage tips for nine types of collections, from  photographs to natural 
history specimens. ERS can help users  protect precious collections and 
significant records, access  reliable information instantly, and save damaged objects. 
 The app was created in partnership with the National Center  for 
Preservation Technology and Training.

The  original slide-chart Wheel was created by Heritage  Preservation, a 
national non-profit organization dedicated  to preserving the cultural 
heritage of the United States. It  has been translated into more than five 
languages and  distributed internationally in more than 40 countries. The  original 
Emergency Response and Salvage Wheel, sponsored by  BELFOR, is still 
available for purchase. Visit the Bookstore  at _www.heritagepreservation.org_
