健康素养低的人经历负面的健康结果，如更长或没有恢复，生活质量下降，频繁和更长的住院时间和发病率。图书馆员的角色正在发生变化，图书馆员通过提供健康信息资源，提供培训机会以及与当地卫生组织和医疗保健提供者合作制定计划，在促进社区健康方面发挥着积极作用。本文讨论了一个学术健康科学图书馆员和公共图书馆员如何结合他们的专业知识和资源，创造一个成功的伙伴关系，今天继续。图书馆员还被邀请参加新泽西两家主要医院的社区健康改善计划（CHIP）。CHIP在一个研讨会上达到高潮，该研讨会汇集了公共和学术健康科学图书馆员和社区中对在新泽西建立健康文化感兴趣的其他成员。
Individuals with low health literacy experience negative health outcomes such as longer or absent recoveries, diminished quality of life, frequent and longer hospitalizations, and morbidity. The role of librarians is changing and librarians are playing a proactive role in fostering community health by providing health information resources, offering training opportunities, and partnering with local health organizations and health care providers to develop programs. This article discusses how an academic health sciences librarian and a public librarian combined their expertise and resources to create a successful partnership that continues today. The librarians were also invited to participate in a community health improvement plan (CHIP) of two major hospitals in New Jersey. The CHIP culminated in a symposium that brought together public and academic health sciences librarians and other constituents from the community who are interested in building a Culture of Health in New Jersey.
