Hi all, 

In the spirit of better late than never... here are the compiled responses to the question I posted way back in February. Thank you to everyone who responded with insight and encouragement. It was greatly appreciated.

Happy Friday,
Bridget

Hello,

I am working on a pilot for dementia care and senior memory kits at my branch and am trying to find some information about these types of kits.

If your library offers this service (or something similar), would you respond off list? I am especially interested in information around initial costs, item selection, and best practices/lessons learned? That being said, any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I will compile all answers and share out.

Thanks in advance,
Bridget
