The Committee has initiated a survey of space suitable for the temporary deposit of cultural materials removed from areas of dan ger, which is being made by the Historical Records Survey of the Work Projects Administration. It is in contact with the best sources of information in the Federal Government and will be glad to give any assistance it can by way of information or advice toward the protection of cultural materials in the possession of any person or institution. Communications to the Committee should be addressed to Collas G. Harris, Chairman of the Executive Committee, National Archives Building, Washington, D. C.
This handbook treats only the protection of cultural materials. For guidance in the protection of staffs and visitors from air attacks, directors of libraries, galleries, museums, and archival agencies should rely upon the local civilian defense organizations.
