PlaneTree Health Library

PlaneTree Health Library has been providing people in the South Bay Area communities with health information for over three decades. Now totally online, the links in our collections are chosen by our librarians from the most trustworthy not-for-profit sources, curated to provide accurate and appropriate patient and consumer health information, and provided free of charge.

Our online resources have a special focus on the health care concerns of people in our local communities (Santa Clara County / Silicon Valley, California) and on aging well, senior caregiving, and later life issues.

We believe that informed patients are able to partner more effectively with their health care professionals. Being informed and aware also empowers people to take better care of their own health, the health of their loved ones, and the health of their communities.
