Public libraries and health information

Are libraries effective settings for accessing health information? is a Sax Institute Evidence Check review. It examines evidence of the effectiveness of using public libraries as settings for health promotion and health education programs.
There have not been many of these programs evaluated so it is difficult to use the current literature to assess the health outcomes of programs in libraries. However public libraries are increasingly considered to be active community spaces trusted for information-seeking across the world.
