Abstract

An academic medical center library and community outreach office partnered with community-based organizations and public libraries to deliver patient empowerment workshops within the community. The workshops included information on reliable sources for health information and how to engage your medical provider as a partner in improving your health. The initial project expanded to include the creation of professional development workshops for area public librarians. The final stage of the project was the redesign of the academic library’s website page to incorporate the community workshop content, including the creation of patient education videos.
