The University of Michigan Health Sciences Libraries are pleased to announce the availability of nine online tutorials at http://www.sph.umich.edu/mi-info/. The series of online tutorials are part of the MI-INFO grant project, funded by a public health subcontract from the National Network of Libraries of Medicine, Greater Midwest Region.

The tutorials focus on health information and computer literacy skills and are designed not only to support academic public health informatics programs and public health outreach training initiatives but also to help general audiences in finding, evaluating, and using reliable health information on the Internet. The tutorials are competency-based and feature learning objectives, key concepts, exercises, and case studies. The MI-INFO resources will especially be of interest to library instructors who teach classes in using health statistics and other health education resources as well as software such as PowerPoint, Access, and Excel.

This project has been funded in whole or in part with Federal funds from the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under Contract No. N01-LM-6-3503 with the University of Illinois at Chicago.
