Dementia Resources Library
The Dementia Resources Library was developed and housed by The Brotherhood of St. Laurence until it found its home with Eastern Regional Libraries in Ringwood, Victoria. The library contains a range of resources, from stimulation to relaxation, for people living with dementias. Relatives, friends and professionals in supporting roles have found these resources valuable. As the catalogue is available online you can source items from the comfort of your home or workplace. Join the library to borrow.
