- I recently came across some interesting resources for older adults which may be
- of interest to those of you who do bibliotherapy or have staff in your
- institutions that offer such services to older adults.The Third Age Press, a
- public service imprint, publishes large print literary anthologies comprised of
- brief excerpts on topics likely to stimulate reminiscences and discussion.
- They have been used with success at a number of facilities in the Philadelphia
- area.Five booklets are currently available with two more in the works. They
- are extremely inexpensive. Anyone who is interested can request a sample copy
- for $2.00 (or just further information) from the Elizabeth B. Wenzel, Editor,
- Third Age Press, 337 Dickinson Avenue, Swarthmore, PA 19081
