Other research shows that reading helps keep the brain active and can reduce the risk of memory problems. 3But instead of just looking at reading,this new study paid much attention to the influence public libraries themselves have.The study looked at data (from over 70,000 people aged 65 and older between 2013 to 2025.It found that towns with one more library book per person had 4%fewer people needing care.And in towns with 10 more library books per person,the number was 34%lower.The researchers looked at other possible reasons that might explain the results,such as income (or education. But even with these reasons,the connection between libraries and better health stayed strong. 4The researchers say this is only a connection,and not clear evidence that library books directly cause better health.But there are several reasons why having libraries full of books might help keep older people healthy.Walking to the library can be a simple way for older people to get some exercise.And reading keeps the brain active,as past studies have shown.Above all,many libraries have clubs,talks and events about reading that help people connect with others,which is important for mind and moods. 5So even people who don't read much can still get benefits (from living near a good library! 36.Why is the new study mentioned in Paragraph 1?
