The National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NNLM) is pleased to announce a partnership with the NIH All of Us Research Program (All of Us), part of the Precision Medicine Initiative. Through this collaboration, NNLM’s Regional Medical Libraries and National Offices will focus on improving consumer access to high quality health information in communities throughout the U.S., specifically, by working with public libraries.

This partnership is a 3-year pilot program to support All of Us. Activities in the pilot are designed to:

• Help public libraries in supporting the health information needs of their users
• Support community engagement through public libraries for All of Us
• Operate the All of Us Training Center, the home for training and resources about and related to the program for consumers, health professionals, librarians, and researchers
