Gough, S., Feehan, P., & Lyons, D. (2013) <b><i><span style="color:#38761D">Serving Grandfamilies in Libraries: A Handbooks and Programming Guide</span></i></b>. New York: Scarecrow Press.
<br>
<br>
Gough, Feehan, and Lyons have taken everything learned from their research on developing GrandFamily Resource Collections and leading grandfamily programming in several states and put it in this easy to use guide. They share the successes and failures of existing
 programs so other librarians can hit the ground running rather than trudge through a time-consuming and costly period of trial-and-error. It’s a lot more efficient to learn from someone else’s mistakes than to make your own.
<br>
<br>
The target population, grandfamilies, and most specifically, grandparents raising grandchildren have become a statistically-significant group worthy of attention in many communities but library practitioners may not have explored further due to a lack of resources
 and money. <br>
