Abstract:
Though bibliotherapy has long been used as a supplement to medical therapeutics, it has heretofore been based upon the patient's reading and discussion of selected books. This paper reports the first instance of bibliotherapy with nonreaders. The special limitations of brain damaged patients are discussed, and a flexible program of library work with these patients is set forth. An interdisciplinary approach to bibliotherapy is suggested.
