With longer life expectancy and increasing diversity, older adults are reinventing aging and changing perceptions of their demographic. It’s time to rethink how our libraries serve this important and growing segment of our patron base. This webinar will focus on trends and impacts of the aging population, and will share creative strategies for library staff to meet the evolving needs of older adults in a changing world.
King County Library System was recently recognized by Urban Libraries Council as a 2016 Top Innovator for their work with older adults. Congratulations!
Presented by: Wendy Pender, Older Adults Project Specialist, King County Library System (WA)
