Libraries everywhere are providing valuable health services, using cutting-edge information and communication technology (ICT). They are increasing access to health information and health services, improving health literacy, connecting patients to their doctors and disseminating vital information via email and SMS.  EIFL-PLIP wants to share stories about innovative and effective health services, so that others can see valuable contribution that public libraries are making.

If your library is using ICT to improve community health, then this award is for you! Tell us your story and show us the impact of your service.
