Need Help with Dead Laptop Battery

Saw some good advice on trying to revive a “dead” battery. My battery is brand new, but I left it alone in storage for 1 year. It cannot hold a charge now. According to one discussion here, it was advised to put a 100 ohm resistor to the battery and bench charge it forcing current in battery. How do I do this? Do I take it to a specialty shop. Plese advise. Thks.
