Abstract |
"Sara (Sadie) Marie Johnson Peterson Delaney was for 34 years (1924-58) the chief librarian of the U.S. Veterans Administration Hospital in Tuskegee, Ala. In this capacity, she not only provided library service to thousands of physically and mentally disabled African Americans, but also developed the art of bibliotherapy to such an extent that her methods received worldwide recognition"
