摘要:In this glowing, well-earned, well-documented tribute to Dr. Sadie P. Delaney, Chief Librarian of the VA Hospital of Tuskegee, Alabama, the Director of Libraries of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute reviews the different aspects of the art of bringing books and people, particularly patients, together. These approaches Dr. Delaney has utilized and adapted with outstanding vision and skill during her thirty-seven years of administering library service to the 2000 neuropsychiatric patients at Tuskegee. Her long, energetic and productive career in bibliotherapy, indeed, a source of inspiration to her colleagues, is further reinforced by this account.
