Library Outreach Service For St. Joseph's Hospital
Arts and Entertainment - Books
Clare County Library today launched a book delivery service for the elderly at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Ennis.
The launch took place during National Social Inclusion Week 2010, which aims to create awareness and develop a greater understanding of social inclusion issues.
Under the new book delivery scheme, library staff will make monthly visits to the hospital, bringing print material (including large-print books), audio materials, and any requested titles to residents.
According to Frances O Gorman, Executive Librarian, Clare County Library: “This vital link to library services means greater enrichment and a better quality of life for those residents who are permanently or temporarily unable to get to the Library”.
