*Important survey to identify libraries directly serving patrons with
Alzheimer’s and related dementias.*



The Alzheimer's & Related Dementias Interest Group (IGARD) is in the
process of creating guidelines for library service directly to persons
diagnosed with dementia. As part of the due diligence process, we are
seeking input from libraries across the country so that we can document
already existing best practices.

If your library is currently offering, or has offered in the past, services
and/or programming directly to members of your community diagnosed with
dementia, please self-identify by completing this brief survey -
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/services_dementia.

IGARD is an Interest Group of the Association of Specialized and
Cooperative Library Agencies (ASCLA), which is a division of the American
Library Association (ALA) - http://www.ala.org/ascla/interestgroups/igard.



Please forward this message to the appropriate person at your library and
appropriate e-lists.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any
questions.

Chair, IGARD
