  • Aging in the Modern World. Bowman, Robyn Adult Education Annotated Bibliographies Community Programs Employment Federal Programs Government Publications Health Housing Income Older Adults Planning Public Libraries Research An increased average life span and population growth during the baby boom are reasons for the increasing aged population in the United States. The Federal government with its programs and organizations is recognizing their needs, but the public library should also become involved by providing information and referral resources. This annotated selected bibliography, intended as a core collection for public libraries to help meet the needs of this population, lists government publications on education; employment; retirement; physical and mental health; housing; income; nutrition; retirement roles; spiritual well being; transportation; facilities, programs, and services; government and non-government organizations; planning; and research.
