Coping Skills
We (in Minnesota) have been wanting to see an update to the fantastic //Coping Skills// publication (ISBN: 0-8444-0799-2) that the NLS put out in 1993, so I thought I'd attempt to re-create it here. All are welcome (and encouraged) to participate. I could certainly use the help!
I have listed all of the categories as they were in the publication, but I am not tied to them. It has been 20 years since the creation of this publication so I'm sure that everything from the category names to the books included could be outdated.
NOTE: I have created a format that I would like to retain if possible (for example, category name = Headline level 2; book titles = Headline level 3). That said, I'm open for suggestions and corrections.
