In the experimental group, bibliotherapy sessions were held and no interventions were performed more than usual in the research environment. The sample of the research community choson From 40 librarians Hamadan Public Libraries (20 women and 20 men), Who were present at the time of distribution of the questionnaires and completed the questionnaire if desired.This sample was randomly divided into control and experimental groups.And they ensured homogeneity in terms of age, sex, education level, marital and celibate status and other variables The research instruments included two questionnaires: Pearson Marr, World Health Organization Quality of Life, and Goldberg and Haller Public Health.The General Health QuestionnaireThis research consisted of two questionnaires to measure the quality of life of the World Organization and the public health of Goldberg and Hellier. The General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28) is in the form of Likert, which is considered to be 0 at all, 1 as usual, 2 more than usual, and 3 much more than usual. The maximum score of the subject with this method will be 84. In this test, a lower score indicates health and a higher score indicates lack of health and discomfort in the person. And the World Health Organization's quality of life questionnaire is a 26-question questionnaire that measures a person's overall quality of life. A higher score indicates a higher quality of life.

The therapist researchers used two books as My Graceful Life: The Most Effective Strategies for Self-Analysis and Enriching Relationships with Others written by Pearson-Carroll, Mar and the book Awakening the Inner Hero. by Patricia Addson (2014).

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of bibliotherapy on the assertiveness of low-assertive elementary school students.
Method: The present study is a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test design with control and follow-up groups. The statistical population for the study consisted of shy female students in the fourth grade of a primary school in Qaen City. The researchers used purposeful sampling to select the sample. An intervention using bibliotherapy was administered to the experimental group over 8 sessions, each involving the reading of a storybook for 45 minutes, twice a week. The control group did not receive any intervention. The researchers employed covariance analysis and repeated measurement to test their hypotheses.
Findings: The experimental group improved significantly over the control group during the post-test phase. The results also demonstrated that this improvement was sustained during the follow-up phase. These findings suggest that group bibliotherapy is an effective approach for enhancing and maintaining bold behaviour in children who struggle with this skill.
Conclusion: It is crucial to utilize techniques that facilitate communication between children and their therapists, and in this study, story therapy through bibliotherapy was found to provide an opportunity for children to overcome their limitations. The current research utilized the bibliotherapy approach, specifically story therapy, to offer a chance for children lacking courage to address their vulnerabilities. The potential factors contributing to this progress can be identified in the characteristics of story therapy as highlighted by experts.
