Selected Resources on Aging: An Annotated Bibliography for Consumers. Special Reference Briefs.

This annotated bibliography was created to provide consumers with reliable information to help them promote positive health and well-being of the elderly in their families, communities, and throughout the nation. It is also hoped that the resources in this bibliography can help make a positive impact on consumers' own aging process and transition into the later years. The bibliography includes a compilation of eight separate Pathfinders from the United States Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Library and includes citations in the areas of: (1) adult children; (2) aging parents; (3) family caregiving; (4) family support networks; (5) grandparenting; (6) intergenerational relationships; (7) living arrangements in later life; and (8) sibling relationships in adulthood. Also included are lists of sources of additional information, organizations concerned with issues of aging, and reviewers who helped in the selection of materials to be included in the bibliography.
