The provision of health information is an important goal for most librarians wanting to insure their users become health literate. Librarians have a long history of delivering health information services to consumers; they now have an opportunity to become key partners in advancing health literacy in their library. How can librarians accomplish this? They can become more knowledgeable about health information sources, provide health-related reference service, teach users how to find and select good health information, and recognize the issues of low health literacy in their community. This free 50-minute presentation offers some insight into the elements of a good health information service and is designed for librarians who want to advocate for health literacy.
