Senior Spaces

AARP recently issued an article discussing changes libraries are making in order to attract older adult patrons. The goal was to provide interactive programming and an opportunity to connect with others. The article includes many examples of programs, including technology workshops, board and video games, and craft clubs. The full article can be found here.

This page features a list of 25 Ways to serve older adults, written by the librarian behind the senior space movement, Allen Kleinman.

For more information about the original Senior Space project at Old Bridge Public Library in Old Bridge, New Jersey, visit the links provided on this page.
