dc.description.abstract | The aim of this paper is to explore the measures that can be taken to avoid man made disasters and minimise the effect of all types of disasters within a newly established library in a research organisation. Current literature on disaster management will be reviewed to determine the new trends in this field. An outline of the likely disasters that can happen in Africa will be given. Although the disaster management process involves four major phases, only two - prevention and preparedness phases will be examined in detail. The two phases involve strategies and actions that prevent disasters to occur. | en |
