LIBRARY FINDS -
"Some of the best information
at your local
library
isn't
in a book - it's in the person
sitting at the main desk.
Recent
research from the University
of Michigan
Comprehensive
Cancer
Center showed that
cancer patients
looking for
useful and accurate information
on the Internet were
much more likely to find it
if they enlisted the help of a
librarian. Only 4 percent of the
patients
surveyed said they
were able to find all the same
information on their own.
While this study looked at
cancer information, the results
pertain to any health concern."
