All Minnesotans play a part in keeping antibiotics effective. Together, we can raise awareness of the significant impact antibiotic resistance has on the health of our world and ensure that infections can be treated effectively for generations to come.
The Minnesota One Health Antibiotic Stewardship Collaborative (MOHASC) is excited to offer a comprehensive set of materials to help your library promote antibiotic stewardship for humans, animals, and the environment. Materials include infographics, question and answer content, coloring and word search pages, and a curated list of books and films. Your library can gather relevant materials from your collection to complement the display. Each library will have the flexibility to set up the display in a way that works best for their space, with instructions and layout ideas included for guidance.
You can request the display materials for your library. Libraries who request these materials will receive them by mail. Please contact health.stewardship@state.mn.us with any questions. By encouraging antibiotic stewardship, your library can play a crucial role in educating communities about judicious antibiotic use and its importance to everyone’s health!
If you would like to learn more, please watch this 16-minute recording of an informational webinar that provides an overview of the display materials.
