Hi--   (sorry for any cross postings)

I am currently doing some research for a potential new project here in NJ
and PA as a component to "Senior Spaces:  Library Places for Baby Boomers,
Older Adults
and Their Families."

The idea is a "Brain Fitness Center."

The New York Public Library has been working with Alvaro Fernandez of
SharpBrains and the
Nassau Library System (NY) has been working with program leaders from
BrainGym.  And, 
when I was at the Old Bridge Public Library (NJ), I did
programming using materials available from the Attainment Company.

Have you thought of your library's potential as a place for Brain Fitness
for all ages? What else is going on in libraries? 

Please share either to the list or e-mail me directly at:  kleiman at aol.com.
I can compile and re-post to the list if there is some interest.

Thanks,
--Allan
