Restoring the Superdome after Hurricane Katrina

In response to Hurricane Katrina, Polygon marshaled the largest recovery team in its 20+ year history. More than 85 projects in greater New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast were handled in a four-month effort. One of the projects Polygon served was the Superdome, which served as a last resort refuge for about 25,000 to 30,000 people during the storm.

Saving Notarial Archives after Hurricane Katrina

A one-of-a-kind collection of older records was kept in the New Orleans Notarial Archives Research Center, some dating to the 1700s. Many fragile and crucial records, most of which were on linen, were jeopardized by wind-driven rain that passed through windows shattered by Hurricane Katrina.

Mold outbreak threatens rare book collection

After an appraiser was asked to evaluate the American Bible Society’s Rare Book Collection, he came to an alarming discovery — an active mold outbreak was attacking more than 1,100 irreplaceable volumes. Located in New York City, the Library is the largest collection of Bibles in North America, with 4,700 volumes, which includes rare bibles dating back to the 13th century. More than 300 languages are represented in the Rare Book Collection, including early printed Bibles and a small collection of manuscripts.
