SUMMARY:Professional First Aid for Cultural Heritage – A presentation of th
 e Cologne model roll-off container
DESCRIPTION:The German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina has been com
 mitted to the protection of cultural heritage for many years. The virtual e
 vent series "Cultural Heritage Protection in Germany" provides insights int
 o the conditions and implementation of successful cultural heritage protect
 ion.\n\nIf cultural heritage is damaged by events such as natural disasters
 , accidents, or fires, then rapid salvage and first aid are required. Howev
 er, not every cultural institution has the necessary set-up to provide prof
 essional first aid. The Cologne Emergency Association of Archives and Libra
 ries and the Cologne Fire Brigade have developed a roll-off container for s
 uch scenarios. The transportable container offers workstations for written 
 and photographic documentation, cleaning and general packing of cultural ob
 jects. It is also a storage space for almost all the necessary materials an
 d equipment. Completed in 2020, the container has already been successfully
  deployed twice in the summer of 2021 to support institutions affected by t
 he devastating floods in Germany.  The lecture will cover the conception an
 d technical design of the container, some of the salvage operations to date
  and plans for the future. This will be followed by a live-stream presentat
 ion from the container itself in which its innovative features can be demon
 strated.\n\nSpeakers:\n\n 	Nadine Thiel, Head of Conservation, Historical A
