About the PPN Resource Central

About the Project

The Pediatric Pandemic Network (PPN) Resource Central is a curated database that contains peer-reviewed materials addressing the needs of children in disaster and day-to-day emergencies. The goal of PPN Resource Central is to serve as a one-stop shop for everyday emergencies, pediatric disasters, pandemics, emergency care, and emergency management education resources that can be used as part of just-in-time training and operations.

To achieve this goal, the Resource Central Team collaborates with experts to identify the best resources that meet the submission guidelines of the project. Each resource is reviewed by subject matter experts and cataloged into records by librarian professionals. The team also curates records into Resource Guides and Collections based on the needs of partners. To learn more about the project, please visit our F.A.Q.
