Digitize important documents with the EIC on Monday, April 29

The Emergency Information Council (EIC) will hold its second free vital document scanning event on Monday, April 29, from 1:30-3 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 4.

The Emergency Information Council’s second scanning event will help residents scan vital documents on to a flash drive. Scanning documents like member and stock certificates, wills, passports, and other important documents can be helpful after a disaster when paper documents may have been lost, damaged or unavailable. Digitized documents kept in an emergency go bag can help a resident prove identity and make recovery much quicker.

The flash drive is free and small enough to fit into any emergency go bag. A copier will be available to scan important cards and odd-sized materials. The event will limit documents to 20 pages to ensure all who want the service will be helped.

The EIC will also hand out a waterproof canister to keep the drive safe and a fireproof bag to store those important document originals.
