Please Note: Froedtert Health has implemented a new security protocol which has resulted in the degradation of on-campus access to MCW Libraries' electronic resources. Users on the Froedtert network must sign in via OpenAthens when attempting to access electronic library resources (including UpToDate, VisualDx, etc.). MCW Libraries is aware of this change and is working to provide a permanent access solution. If you have MCW credentials, please sign in via MCW employees and students when prompted. If you are a Froedtert employee, click here to register for an OpenAthens account or view more information.
A lot of misleading health information is published in books and magazines and featured on TV and the web. It's important to get health information from trusted resources. When reading health information, it's also helpful to ask yourself questions about the source of the health information.

Despite being "digital natives", the current generation of children, adolescents, and young adults often lack the skills to understand and appraise health information they've accessed on the internet. Below are some links to tools to help younger age groups inspect and assess health resources online.
