Libraries Transform Health Literacy Toolkit
By Donna DiMichele | October 24, 2018
The National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NNLM) and the American Library Association (ALA) have updated the Libraries Transform Health Literacy Toolkit with brand new resources to help library professionals raise awareness of how libraries provide trusted health information to their communities.
With the free online toolkit, you can download posters, postcards, bookmarks and other materials, get key messages and tips for using the Health Literacy Toolkit locally.
The toolkit provides key messages, program ideas and downloadable marketing materials, including bookmarks and social media graphics, for libraries to use as they promote health literacy during Health Literacy Month (October) and throughout the year. The new additions to the toolkit cover a wide-ranging array of health literacy topics including genetics, family history, clinical trials, citizen science projects, customizing care and student well-being. The toolkit also covers subjects such as aging, nutrition and chronic illness.
