| contents | Health Info at Your Library. A Guide to Developing & Promoting Consumer Health Information. Mayo, Kathleen, Ed. Consumer Education Family Health Guidelines Health Programs Information Services Institutional Libraries Library Networks Medical Libraries Outreach Programs Public Libraries Publicity An outgrowth of three seminars sponsored by the State Library of Florida and the Florida Health Science Library Association in June 1985 for public, institution, and health sciences librarians, this guide is a direct response to those librarians' requests for help in letting their communities know that their libraries are accessible and reliable sources of health information. Following a brief introduction, the guide is divided into seven sections: (1) an overview of the Consumer Health Information (CHI) promotion project, which suggests a number of service options that libraries can offer and provides a list of readings to help libraries in establishing their own services; (2) suggestions for using posters, bookmarks, clip art, and other materials for promoting CHI services; (3) a sampler of existing library-based programs and services; (4) CHI resources, including kinds of materials that should be in the library collection, sources of some of these materials, information and hotline numbers, a list of professional and volunteer health organizations in Florida, and a list of federal health information clearinghouses; (5) sample reference policies and materials; (6) sources of information and materials on AIDS; and (7) sample brochures, fliers, and bookmarks.
