摘要：
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine one academic library and how the staff dealt with the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Design/methodology/approach - A case study of the Tulane Recovery Center in New Orleans that was created after Hurricane Katrina in cooperation with Library Associates Companies (LAC). Findings - Institutions may have a disaster plan outlined as to what to do in an emergency but in actuality one is never fully prepared for a natural disaster. Originality/value - This paper examines the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina on the Howard-Tilton Memorial Library at Tulane University and the creation of the Tulane Recovery Center, which can serve as a model for other to follow.
