About Us

CLIC-on-Health is a collaboration of hospital, public and school librarians, in order to provide all the people of the greater Rochester, New York area with the high-quality healthcare information and resources they need to make wise lifestyle and healthcare choices. The project features :

  • Websites and RSS feeds from reliable, up-to-date websites. All of the websites follow the HON (Health on the Internet Foundation) guidelines for authoritative content, which distinguishes ads from reliable medical content.
  • Information on medical and healthcare providers in the Rochester region, through links to cooperating websites.
  • Training in the use of health information on the Internet.

The project is coordinated by the Rochester Regional Library Council, a multi-type library consortium serving libraries in the 5-county (Monroe, Livingston, Wayne, Wyoming and Ontario) Rochester area.
