Statement from ALA Key Message(s): As our community members continue to live longer, libraries must find ways to meet the needs of our older adults. Older adults having a space to gather and an opportunity to engage in conversation and activities with each other helps to improve their overall health. Promotional Use(s)/ Activity Suggestions: This statement can be used to promote the numerous programs created specifically for the aging population, including programs around art, knitting, storytelling/oral history, yoga, and silver sneakers.
