This document discusses services for older adults ("Boomers") at the Multnomah County Library in Portland, Oregon. It outlines the demographics of the region showing a growing older adult population. It addresses initial concerns about focusing on older adults but argues that the library is well-suited to serve this group through its welcoming environment and emphasis on lifelong learning. The document then details how the library began building partnerships within the community and inviting other organizations to collaborate on serving older adults. It provides tips on relationship building and making the case for focusing on this demographic.
