Daftar Isi:
- Senior citizens deserve better attention from society and professionals in general due to their physical and emotional difficulties. Indifference, prejudice and disregard toward senior citizens may start in the family and then spread into the society they live in, creating an erroneous image of invalidity and senility. Indifference toward their abilities bring out problems such as depression and low self-esteem. Leisure activities in groups can be one way to reduce these feelings of loneliness and sedentary life, improving their quality life. The act of reading , in many cases, help individuals acquire knowledge, express their feelings, develop their intelligence and improve their social life. The act of reading can also be included in projects that develop inter- generation relationships, promoting an exchange of experiences. As a social agent, the librarian must focus their attention in activities and functions on developing senor citizens readers since initiatives like this in Brazil are scarce.
