The RCS Community Library will invite students to engage with high quality health information though MedlinePlus in the process of creating graphic novels using the Graphic Medicine Comic or zine Creation Program. This experience will improve their awareness of quality resources and allow them to share their new knowledge with family and community members in person and through a showcase of their work at the Library. The showcase will have an opening reception which will include a high level overview of MedlinePlus so that families of participants will be familiar with the resource that their 86 used.
