Resource Library
RSVP also has a resource library and volunteers are
encouraged to use it. Volunteers
may borrow books and tapes that cover a wide range of topics from enhancing
tutoring practices, to understanding learning disabilities, and more.
Any of the intergenerational staff can assist volunteers in locating the
resources to answer their questions.
