We at Krum Public Library hope this post finds you and your loved ones safe and unharmed by Hurricane Beryl and this week’s tropical weather. By request, we are sharing information from the Heritage Emergency National Task Force (HENTF), a public-private partnership between FEMA and the Smithsonian Institution, with resources to help our patrons with post-storm recovery.
Members of the public who have questions about saving family heirlooms can email the National Heritage Responders at NHRpublichelpline@culturalheritage.org.
HENTF’s Save Your Family Treasures guidance is available at Save Your Family Treasures | FEMA.gov. Here you can find the downloadable FEMA fact sheets “After the Flood: Advice for Salvaging Damaged Family Treasures” and “Salvaging Water-Damaged Family Valuables and Heirlooms,” available in multiple languages.
