Webinar Series: Library Disaster Resilience

Join us on January 21, 2026, at 10:00 AM for our first webinar of the year!

In January 2025, LA County and the surrounding areas were tragically struck by wildfires. Many public institutions were impacted by the wildfires, including our libraries. One year later, the Altadena Library District reflects on the impact of the disaster and its recovery.

Join us as David Zearbaugh from the Altadena Library and Fady Bekhit, a CENIC engineer, share a real-world case study on maintaining and restoring library connectivity during wildfire-related outages. Learn practical lessons learned, connectivity redundancy strategies, and disaster recovery approaches that helped get critical systems back online and keep services running for staff and the public.
