Public libraries have served older clients for decades, catering for their needs with large print, talking books, hearing aid loops and housebound library services. It's easy to think that the ageing of the baby boomers is going to mean more of the same.
But the real question is, will they be like the older adults before them? Will libraries have to adapt to a new type of "older client"?
These are some of the issues that this blog will consider, along with the services, collections, programming, building design and other ways public libraries are catering for the specific needs of older adults.
