The Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) provides a free "Disaster Recovery Checklist" online at http://cosn.org/docs/CoSN%20-%20Disaster%20Recovery%20Checklist.pdf.

The 10-item list covers everything from identifying and contacting the individuals in charge of recovery efforts to contacting FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Administration), quickly re-establishing payroll, and recovering data. Explanations and tips are offered, as are links to online resources.

The checklist is provided as a courtesy by CoSN for use by all educational technology professionals.
