The Society of Southwest Archivists (SSA) has established a weblog tocapture and share information about our colleagues and friends fromLouisiana and Mississippi, who have been affected by HurricaneKatrina. The url is as follows:http://herbie.ischool.utexas.edu/ssacaresA big frustration for everyone is not knowing the status or situationof the individuals affected. SSA hopes that this weblog can help withthat.  For those individuals from the affected states, let us hearfrom you directly by checking in on the weblog. Secondly, if anyoneknows anything about the individuals from these states, please sharethat as well.Additional features of the blog include sections for repositoryinformation and for repository needs.Source:http://listserv.muohio.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A2=ind0509a&#38;L=archives&#38;T=0&#38;F=&#38;S=&#38;P=5790See also:http://www.archivists.orgMuseums and Libraries damages:http://www.heritagepreservation.org/PROGRAMS/Katrina.HTM (Clearing house)http://slis.lsu.edu/faculty/McCarthy/katrina.htmhttp://www.ala.org/ala/alonline/currentnews/newsarchive/2005abc/august2005abc/katrina.htmhttp://www.cronaca.com/archives/003775.html
