North Carolina Health Info

Launched in January 2003, North Carolina Health Info was the first resource of its kind to link local health services with corresponding information in MedlinePlus, the consumer health Web site maintained by the National Library of Medicine.

Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Health Sciences Library and School of Information and Library Science developed the “Go Local” system, which has since served as a model for other state and regional health-information sites.

The NC Health Info project team has collected and cataloged Web sites from around the state, using the Healthy Carolinians 2010 objectives as a guideline to ensure that the collection reflects the health needs of North Carolinians.
