There is an ubundance of health information in South Africa. Information providers such as medical libraries, statutory councils, university departments, government and non-government organisations have a wealth of information. However health workers, particularly those in rural areas, are often remote from these information sources. Consequently, health workers still find difficulty in understanding developments in health care, making clinical and management decisions or building intersectoral partnerships.
