The National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NNLM) offers free continuing education and training opportunities related to consumer health. Unfortunately, the demands of the modern work environment make it difficult for library staff to dedicate time to these opportunities. This has left many libraries unaware of, or untrained in, numerous free high quality health resources that can be passed on to the public. To address the problem of time, this project reconfigured the information session for the NIH Senior Health Website. The session was transformed into a “microlearning” module, with 6 short video tutorials that have small amounts of content.
