Wash, Rinse, Dry--and Fold in Learning

The National Library of Medicine is reaching people where they live, work, play, and even do laundry.

Through the “Wash and Learn” program in Minnesota, librarians read to children stories that encourage healthy habits while their parents learn how to use MedlinePlus to find quality health information.

“The Wash and Learn program was a pilot project funded by our Greater Midwest Region within the National Network of Libraries of Medicine and developed in partnership with Libraries without Borders,” said Amanda J. Wilson, head of NLM’s National Network Coordinating Office. Wilson leads NLM’s National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NNLM), a network of health science libraries and information centers across the country.
