Narrative

Consumer health information is intended for potential or current users of medical services (all of us!). It is designed to be educational, and can help individuals make decisions about health-related behavior and medical treatments. It differs from clinical information—that is, information written by and for medical professionals—in that it is developed with the layperson in mind, involving less technical language and more user-friendly formats. Consumer health information may include resources about prevention, self-care and wellness, diseases and conditions, treatment, health care options, and more.

Daily library staffing is still provided to assist you, but with fewer staff available on site. Most library services are provided electronically for your convenience.

A compendium of online health information in a wide variety of languages and EthnoMed, which provides ethnic and medical information pertinent to immigrant and refugee groups.
