Has anyone ever lost their entire library data?  Today our server died and
according to the district technology people, the backup tape was corrupt.
It appears not only  that we have lost the entire Follett library program
and data but our school's email and other programs on the server as well.
This wasn't Friday the 13th was it?  Anyway, tomorrow I will know exactly
how bad everything is.  I am being told though that it's BAD! My question
is, has anyone ever experienced this before and if so, what plan of action
do you suggest.  There is no other backup.  There are no shelf list cards.
Everything was on the server.  Our immediate plan is to limit checkout (we
don't even know what books we have checked out now) and to use check-out
cards.  Fortunately there are some of those still around. It is going to be
a mess.  Any suggestions?
