Description

Book Well is a program created by bibliotherapist Dr Susan McLaine.  Using books, photographs and newspaper articles it invites people to reminisce about days gone by, promoting memories, discussion and general wellbeing. Here at the Mount Gambier Library our Book Well program includes residents from local aged care facilities and other community groups. 


In this episode we talk to Library staff member Susan Briffa, Bookwell coordinator since its inception just over a decade ago. Susan discusses the joy she takes from running this program, her most memorable moments, and just what it takes to start a good conversation.


We are also joined by Maxine, a long time participant and contributor to the Bookwell program.
