Dear Colleagues,

For your consideration this Web site has some great ideas for
collaboration with public libraries and information on health literacy
resources at:
http://www.healthlit.org/health_resources/health_literacy.htm

The Healthy People Library Project 
http://www.healthlit.org/

The Healthy People Library Project is a five-year project to bring to
the nation's 16,000 public libraries the latest information about
biomedical research. The project is designed to provide minority groups
and other consumers easy access to current, reliable information on
selected health topics at their local libraries.

Another way to reach the medically underserved is via radio. Perhaps
some of you would be interested in this RFP:
