"The rumors traveled urgently from Haiti: Beyond all the death and wreckage, one of the nation's greatest exports -- its cultural scholarship -- was buried that awful afternoon in January.

The three largest heritage libraries and the National Archives -- keepers of much of Haiti's complicated, heroic, rich story -- were reportedly lost to the random nature of earthquakes.

Within days of the Jan. 12 disaster, a university staffer 750 miles away worked frantically to deliver better news: the buildings were shaken but still standing; their precious rare books, manuscripts, newspapers and brochures had been spared. And the people who spend day after day caring for the collections were all safe.

But Brooke Wooldridge also learned help was desperately needed to rescue and preserve the treasures that help chronicle Haiti's history, clustered mostly in the four institutions in downtown Port-au-Prince.

``First I worried about the people and making sure everybody working at these institutions were OK, and then I thought about all of those collections,'' said Wooldridge, project coordinator for the Digital Library of the Caribbean at Florida International University. ``I felt very conflicted. Emotionally, I knew there was so much life lost, but I also knew that if the collections were ignored, Haiti's collective memory could be lost. I knew we needed to help'.''

So Wooldridge quickly assembled like-minded culturalists who were already a part of the Digital Library, an international coalition of research, governmental and educational institutions that provides access to Caribbean-related electronic materials.

The organization, founded in 2004, was perfectly poised to help. Led by Wooldridge, it had already been working with Haiti's librarians and curators over the years to digitize their collections. Within weeks, the group launched a campaign to rally international contributors, raise money and provide technical support for the recovery and protection of Haiti's cultural resources -- the already brittle rare books and documents scattered and dusted by the quake.

THE VOLUNTEERS

They joined a small cadre of other organizations and Haiti's own volunteers that pushed the same broader cultural mission: save the public and private collections, all essential to the national identity.

To date, about $4,200 has been raised and 50 volunteers have signed up. Wooldridge and historian Matthew J. Smith, who heads the Haitian Task Force at the University of the West Indies, have traveled to Haiti to bring back a detailed list of needs.

``In real terms, the urgency is to get the collections cleaned and repaired and restored,'' said Chantalle Verna, assistant professor in FIU's department of History and International Relations and member of the Digital Library advisory board. ``If we lose these documents, we lose what can help us understand Haiti better.''

The group's Protecting Haitian Patrimony initiative includes assisting four institutions in Port-au-Prince:

• Archives Nationales d'Haïti, which houses civil and state records as well as those of the Office of the President and most government ministries.

• Bibliothèque haïtienne des Pères du Saint-Esprit, founded in 1873 by the Fathers of the Holy Spirit, holds documents chronicling the history of Haiti, French colonization, slavery and emancipation and 20th century records.

• Bibliothèque haïtienne des Frères de l'Instruction Chrétienne, founded in 1912 by the Christian Brothers, serves as repository for Haitian imprints and one of the most significant collections of newspapers.

• Bibliothèque National d'Haïti, established in 1939, holds a small collection of rare books, manuscripts and newspapers, and offers research support and study space.

``These archives represent the collective memory of the Haitian people, their culture, and Haiti's role in the history of the Western hemisphere and the world,'' said Laura Probst, dean of FIU Libraries and executive committee member of the Digital Library. ``With this initiative we seek to preserve these invaluable resources for Haiti's future, and for our own.''

In the days after the quake, leaders of the institutions rushed back to assess the damages. Most everything was salvaged and is now packed in cardboard boxes, but remains vulnerable to layers of dust that destroy paper.

Longer term plans include helping repair buildings and replace furnishings and equipment.

``I rushed over there to see if the building was still standing or if everything was destroyed. At first, people thought everything on the campus had been destroyed,'' said Patrick Tardieu, curator of the Bibliothèque haïtienne des Pères, housed on the third floor of a building on the Saint Martial school campus. ``We packed the entire library, about 20,000 books and manuscripts, in about 600 boxes and got them to a safe place.''

RARE TREASURES

Tardieu, who is temporarily based at Brown University, a partner in the initiative, said his library's holdings include several 16th century books, a 1803 Thomas Jefferson State of the Union address translated into French, and Amistad documents.

``Scholars from all over would come to study the documents here because it contained so much important history,'' he said.

Francoise Beaulieu-Thybulle, director general of Haiti's National Library, said the building is still standing amid ruins.

``As soon as the violent aftershocks stopped on [the] 14th, we assessed the damages and took actions to preserve the collection,'' Beaulieu-Thybulle said. ``So far, all the books have been boxed and sheltered in the safe part of the library in about 1,000 boxes.''

Beaulieu-Thybulle said the library holds more than 50,000 books, 600 periodical titles and 300 rare books from the 18th and 19th centuries.

``We must underline that every Haitian book of the 20th century can also be considered rare as a result of a poor editorial situation,'' she said. ``An author generally publishes at his own account and rarely prints more than 500 or a thousand copies.''

Now, her staff of 45 is working to help secure the many private collections -- some of the most valuable documents are owned by individuals in Haiti -- in houses that collapsed or were damaged.

``Many historians, history professors and private collectors are calling on us for help to recover and offer temporary shelter,'' Beaulieu-Thybulle said. ``We are hopeful that our next step will be to reshelve our collection and start providing services.''

"Die Armee in Bolivien will in dieser Woche der Justiz Zugang zu bis anhin geheimen Dokumenten über die Zeit mehrerer Diktaturen des Landes in den 60-er bis in die 80-er Jahre ermöglichen. Die Dokumente sollen Aufschluss über das Schicksal von rund 170 Verschwundenen geben. Er werde am Mittwoch den Generalstab der Armee in der Hauptstadt La Paz treffen, um Zugang zu den Militärarchiven zu bekommen, erklärte Staatsanwalt Milton Mendoza am Dienstag. Zuvor hatte das Verteidigungsministerium grünes Licht für die Öffnung der Archive gegeben. Mendoza schloss jedoch nicht aus, dass einige der Unterlagen vernichtet worden sein könnten."

"Marie-Laurence Jocelyn Lassègue, Haiti’s Minister of Culture and Communication, will chair a Preparatory Meeting for the Establishment of an International Coordination Committee (ICC) for Haitian culture at UNESCO Headquarters on Tuesday, 16 February.
Irina Bokova, the Director-General of UNESCO, will open the meeting, which will be co-chaired by Françoise Rivière, the Organization’s Assistant Director-General for Culture. Participants - Haitian and international experts in cultural heritage preservation as well as potential donors - will take stock of the damage sustained by Haiti’s culture in the earthquake of 12 January. They will focus on tangible and intangible (living traditions and expressions) heritage, museums, archives and libraries, as well as creative industries.
Priority in the first days following the devastating earthquake had to be given to the protection of lives and urgent humanitarian actions, but UNESCO is convinced that cultural preservation must be part of any plan to rebuild Haiti, which lost much of its built heritage in the earthquake.
Participants will include representatives from Interpol, Blue Shield the World Customs Organization, the International Council of Museums (ICOM), International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM). They will help determine the most effective means for UNESCO to work with the Haitian authorities in preparing and implementing a rehabilitation programme for all forms of cultural heritage in the country. In this work it will be essential to draw on the capacities of Haiti’s cultural community, both at home and abroad.
The experts will focus both on the rehabilitation of cultural heritage and industries and on ways to prevent further damage to that heritage, notably from looting.
Once approved by the forthcoming session of UNESCO’s Executive Board (30 March – 15 April), an International Coordination Committee (ICC) will oversee the implementation of the rehabilitation programme for the safeguarding of Haiti’s cultural heritage. The ICC is expected to hold its first meeting in June this year. Similar programmes have proved effective in Cambodia, Afghanistan and Iraq in recent years.
The preparatory meeting of 16 of February will bring together Haitian and international experts in the fields of museums, conservation and restoration of cultural heritage, archives, libraries and manuscripts, rehabilitation of historic sites, creative industries, safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage and the legal protection of cultural heritage. Representatives of UNESCO Member States, governmental and non-governmental institutions as well as potential donors will also be present."

The International Council on Archives wants to publicize throughout the international community the efforts of our Haitian colleagues, who have formed a crisis cell "Heritage in danger", on the fringes of the official commission for the evaluation of buildings and reconstruction. An initial statement of requirements has been issued and you will find a copy of it attached. The Secretariat has very recently been in touch with Jean-Wilfrid Bertrand, the National Archivist of Haiti, and Jérémy Lachal, Executive Director of Libraries Without Borders, currently on mission in Port-au-Prince. Jean-Wilfrid and others have confirmed that the items on the requirements list are really needed, and that, if anything, it is an under-statement. Jean-Wilfrid has in particular emphasized the urgent requirement for tarpaulins. These are needed to protect records that are at present lying on the ground, because the buildings that previously housed them have been destroyed. If nothing is done now, they will be completely exposed during the forthcoming rainy season. ICA is now working as a matter of urgency on ways of getting these and other materials to him at Port-au-Prince as quickly as possible.

At present the efforts of ICA, through its participation in the Blue Shield Network, are focused on the collection of hard information, as the basis for a first report on damage to cultural property in Haiti. All information collected by organizations in the Blue Shield will be made available to governments, associations and other organizations. The report will give an indication of the likely resources that will be needed to safeguard the heritage of this country. ICA will also be encouraging the Blue Shield to provide timely help, in the form of a detailed action plan, for the Crisis Cell "Heritage in danger" in its work of coordinating and organizing rescue teams.

The ICA would like to take this opportunity to thank the nearly 500 volunteers who have already responded to the appeals for help. Our goal now is to adapt the operations of aid and assistance to the needs that have been identified on the spot, in conditions of maximum security.

"Members of the Caribbean Archives Association (CARBICA) wish to express their heart-felt sympathy and solidarity with their colleagues and their families, and the Haitian people.
CARBICA, of which the National Archives of Haiti is a member, stands ready to help its fellow archivists to conduct damage assessments to establish the state of records and archives at the National Archives, government ministries and other allied institutions, as well as their eventual salvage and conservation.
Concerned that the compromise of vital records and archives would mean a compromise of good governance and national memory, members of CARBICA are invited to continue to make pledges towards a pool of resources for the salvage and preservation of vital records and archives. As part of the regional effort, members are asked to communicate to CARBICA any other initiatives they or their countries are making in that regard.
CARBICA is resolved to collaborate with the International Council on Archives, Blue Shield, and other allied organizations and NGOs working in Haiti, in order to lend support and aid that is practical, appropriate, and productive according to the priorities expected to be identified by the recently formed Haitian crisis unit “Patrimony in danger”."
"The Caribbean Archives Taskforce for Disaster Preparedness (CARTAS) is the initiative of the Caribbean Archives Association (CARBICA) to co-ordinate CARBICA's response to disasters affecting its membership."
