General Information
Title: ARPA: NJ Health Connect @ Your Library
State Project Code:
Start Date: 12/01/2021
End Date: 09/30/2022
Abstract: To help ensure the ability to see a doctor and access understandable health information to make informed choices about one’s health, New Jersey State Library administered this program for equitable health information and access during the pandemic and beyond. East Brunswick Public Library implemented the project modeled on their own program, Just for The Health of It! This project addressed healthcare inequities through 28 links to telemedicine apps and webpages for doctor appointments, links to COVID information, and high-quality health literacy resources. Most importantly, it featured a team of certified consumer health librarians at the East Brunswick Public Library, who facilitated and trained other New Jersey librarians to implement this telehealth program in their own communities.

Project Outcomes
Project Outcomes
List any important outcomes or findings not previously reported:
The main focus was on training librarians to help them be able to instruct patrons on the use of iPads to access healthcare information. We know that 190 librarians received this training directly, and can assume that they followed up by passing this training on to other staff at their libraries. However, the project period of performance was too short to allow us to gather data about the use by their community members.
Please briefly describe the importance of these outcomes and findings for future program planning:
We need to consider how we can record outcomes when we plan a project.
Explain one or two of the most significant lessons learned for others wanting to adopt any facets of this project:
We could have included a prompt on the iPad that would encourage the user to fill out a brief survey. We could also have collected survey information from the librarians trained.
