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.

Any medical or other decisions should be made in consultation with your qualified health care provider. The Greater Midwest Region of the National Network Libraries of Medicine and participating HealthWeb institutions will not be liable for any complications, injuries or other medical accidents arising from or in connection with the use of or reliance upon any information on the web.
