March
18 (10-11 am Mountain)
With
the tragic overdose of renowned actor, Philip Seymour Hoffman, many people will
turn to libraries with renewed interest in the study and treatment of the
disease of addiction. Join us for a remarkable webcast from with two of the
most important publishers producing ground-breaking work on this subject and
what it means for collection development. Questions such as what titles should
be on the shelves? How does Obamacare and the Parity Act of 2008 affect access
to treatment? What is the latest thinking on the causes of addiction? How does
addiction affect families and what sort of books are required reading for
research. On hand will be Patrick Hughes from Central Recovery Press and Alison
Vandenberg of Hazelden.
