Old Librarians Never Die They Jump Out of Airplanes: Adventuring Through the Senior Years by
Good advice for all people, not just older folks Published in 2012 by Hawthorne Publishing . Indiana State Library Marie Albertson found herself an empty nester widow in Plymouth, Indiana after helping raise four children and then taking care of a husband with Parkinson's. What does she do? Go to the local Senior Center every Tuesday and sit home and watch TV? No. Albertson continues what she always has done - what no one expected. She had already earned a college degree one class at a time having to pay for it herself because her husband thought it was a waste of time for her to get one. (note: she worked at the Plymouth Library which I am familiar with, having lived in Plymouth from 1990-1993). Albertson took her degree and her library experience to Indianapolis and worked for the Indiana State Library and make a new life for herself - at age 63! Not only that, she has determined to go and do all sorts of new things - and that's what this book is all about.
