Online Health Literacy – Help from Western IL University computer tech people on November 12th

Are you a senior citizen who is unsure where you can go online safely to get good health information? Have you had trouble communicating with your provider online?  A 90-minute session presented by Western Illinois University may be just what you need.
 
Instructors from Western will focus on teaching you the basic online health literacy skills.  They’ll discuss the basic ideas of online health literacy, which online resources on health topics are safe to access, which online support groups you can access for health issues, and how to access your own personal health records.  
 
This 90-minute session is free to the public but there are limited spots for in-person training, so please sign up by calling the library at 309 944-6452. You will be allowed to access a library computer after the class to put your skills to the test.
