Summary:
The schools included in this booklet illustrate how more and more communities throughout the United States are helping to overcome the deficit of fallout shelter spaces. Architects and engineers knowledgeable in radiation shielding techniques have provided this additional safety feature ... at little, if any, increase in construction cost, and shelter areas are in continuous use as part of the school facility - in libraries, cafeterias, corridors, classrooms, auditoriums, shops, and gymnasiums.
