HealthWeb is a collaborative project of the health sciences libraries of the
Greater Midwest Region (GMR) of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM) and those of the Committee for Institutional Cooperation. Currently there are over twenty actively participating member libraries. This project is supported by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) under contract #N01-LM-6-3523 with the University of Illinois at Chicago.
The HealthWeb project was conceived in 1994, with the following expressed goals:
The health sciences librarians of the Committee for Institutional Cooperation
(CIC) schools will work cooperatively to develop an interface which will provide organized access to evaluated non-commercial, health-related, Internet-accessible resources. The resources will include those currently available as well as new resources developed in collaboration with other organizations. The interface will integrate educational information so the user has a one-stop entry point to learn skills and use material relevant to their discipline.
