This good practice guide has been funded by the Department of Health (DH). It provides policy background, identifying some key documents; and suggests the main elements in developing a strategy for library services to older people. It discusses "practicalities" pertinent to working with older people as valued customers. It provides case studies and examples of good practice on aspects of work by individual public library services and a checklist to help with progress in developing services for older people. (RH).
