On the other hand the preservation facilities, the fire safety and security equipment as well as the earthquake resistant construction are among the building strengths against other natural disasters and threats. The history of incidents described in the text and consisted of all the written reports so far, yielded benefits in terms of perceiving and managing risks; a basic practice of technical checks was endorsed and an integrated approach was finally adopted to enhance protection against flood. In this framework in 2017, a pilot project on flood risk analysis and assessment was applied to collections rare and unique, classified and well documented. The flood risk analysis process pointed out the causes and revealed visible as well as out of view sources within the infrastructure. For risk assessment, risk mapping was selected as a methodology which visualizes the value and vulnerability of the collections distributed in storage areas and their exposure to specific flood risks. The methodology is presented step by step and constitutes a proposal for Archives and Libraries since it addresses the problems specific to the materials of their collections. The paper discusses the extent of the risk zones in relation to the risk magnitude, the distribution of vulnerable value and the actions that could be taken to eliminate risk. It argues on options for both preparedness and response, from optimal to feasible solutions, stressing the importance of staff engagement in unfavorable circumstances.enAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Articlehttps://2019.ifla.org/open accessRisk analysis and assessmentexposure to riskcollection valuematerial vulnerabilityrisk mapping
