Consumer Health Information Outreach Program


Did you know that looking up health or medical information on the internet is one of the most popular online activities? According to a 2008 Pew Internet Project, "78% of broadband users look online for health information." Popular search topics include information about medical problems, current medical treatments, diet, prescriptions, alternative medicine and more.
Where do you go when you need reliable, trustworthy information about your health?

Searching the web for health information can be a frustrating, daunting experience. Because of that, the Trinitas Library created The Trinitas Library - Consumer Health Information Partnership Program.
You may contact the library staff for consumer health level information through our website's email form or by phone. We will prepare a packet of information at no cost for you or your family to read and discuss with your health care provider.
So the next time you need health information, please don't hesitate to call or email the Trinitas Library!
We can be reached at 908-994-5371 or www.trinitas.org
