Abstract
The article discusses the effect of literature on readers. School librarians search for new methods of work with the young people in order to spread reading habits among them. One of the methods can be reading books which describe problems of adolescents nowadays and having discussions afterwards. This form of work could be called bibliotherapy and its aim is, besides reading, to solve the problems of young people as well. The term bibliotherapy is taken from the clinical environment, and therefore, its use here could be controversial. It is advisable to organize readings and discussions as a part of a wider school project in which librarians would cooperate with school counseling services as well as with the literature teachers.
