Prepper Library 
Be Prepared! This is a statement so critical, that it was adopted as the Boy Scouts official motto.
Herein is a comprehensive collection of thoughtfully hand-selected publicly released FREE Planning Material, discussing Emergency Preparedness and Mitigation. This archive can help you, your business, and your neighborhood keep relatively safe and comfortable for several days, while cut-off from the normal community infrastructure. Although the information in each document was valid at the time of its writing; technological advancement and social change means that this planning material should not be considered the final word, but rather just the foundation, of your individualized neighborly emergency preparedness plan.
This library is only intended to ease you through the first 30 days of a crisis

Generalized adult information on Emergency Preparedness...
Crisis Planning...a subject often ignored because useful planning information was previously too scattered. However, as recent Tsunamis, Hurricanes, and Ice Storms have proven, preparation is crucial, as emergencies can happen anytime. And the triggering events are not always big. Even a minor event like a falling tree can start a cascading emergency, should it cut off your electrical power for several days or cause an unchecked leak.
When it rains, you open an umbrella and close the windows in your house. When it gets cold, you put on a jacket and turn on the heater in your house. You and your home are prepared to ride out these everyday discomforts. So too when an emergency occurs, you and your home should be just as prepared. Although the recoverable aftermath may linger for some time, a crisis will usually conclude within in a month, often within only a few hours. Emergency Preparedness allows you to pass through the crisis period confidently, serenely, and relatively unscathed, so that you can help others do the same.
The Basic Physiological Needs that must be supplied are (in order of importance): Oxygen, Fluids, Nutrition, Body Temperature, Elimination, Shelter, Rest, Physical Safety, and Psychological Safety. Emergency Preparedness is an approach to meeting these needs that is very different from survivalism and the apocalyptic mindset of "survivalists". To use an analogy... Surviving is what individuals attempt when they wash up naked on a desert island. Emergency Preparation is provisioning a communal lifeboat with supplies, so that you and your group can expeditiously recoup with ease.

NOTES:
~ No personal identifying information is collected while surfing within the confines of prepperlibrary.link, and all planning material within is FREE to download.
~ This Emergency Preparedness Planning archive is not sponsored by or aligned with any government or faith organization, strives to be unbiased, and is gifted to the public.
~ This planning material library also contains information specifically intended for Businesses, Churches, Schools, and Community Planners.
~ Be warned that most of the Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation techniques discussed in older documents within this archive have now been superceded.
~ "Civil Defense" was the old moniker for the same volunteer force that is now called "CERT".
~ "Duck and Cover" was the old buzzword for the same life-saving procedure that is now called "Drop, Cover, and Hold On".
~ The federal government has chosen to discontinue most existing emergency alert communication methods (but in response, several frustrated local communities have installed tornado or flash flood sirens on their own initiative).
~ The federal government has chosen to no longer pursue a packaged hospital program or a protective civilian sheltering program (although many previously placarded shelters are still capable of providing terrorist bomb fallout protection)
~ The federal government is now actively discouraging County governments from formulating or deploying their own customized catastrophe prevention or mitigation plans; and instead promulgates a policy of standardized bureaucratic federal authority over all State and local prevention implementations and after-disaster relief efforts.
~ In regards to authorities cited in the media archived here... The "Federal Civil Defense Administration" was renamed the "Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization", then again renamed the "Office of Civil Defense", and then finally renamed the "Defense Civil Preparedness Agency". The DCPA was absorbed by the "Federal Emergency Management Agency", which was itself merged into the "Department of Homeland Security".
