5. Annotated Bibliography of Aboriginal Books - Volume II (2008)
Pre-School to Adult
Series: Annotated Bibliography of Aboriginal Books
Authors: NWT Literacy Council
The NWT Literacy Council published its first bibliography of Aboriginal books in 2006. Since that time many new works have been created by aboriginal authors, illustrators and translators. This second bibliography contains new works as well as other works not included in the first listing. While this bibliography primarily lists books by Canadian authors and illustrators, books written by people outside of Canada that are interesting and relevant to Canadians have also been included.
To make it easier to find the kinds of books you are looking for, the entries have been divided into three age categories: children, young adult and adult. The authors have used a symbol system to indicate whether a northern Aboriginal author, illustrator or translator has been involved with the book or a person with another background.

8. Health, Communication and Literacy: An Annotated Bibliography (1998)
Authors: Centre for Literacy of Quebec
On September 8, 1998, International Literacy Day,The Centre for Literacy, in co-operation with Nursing Staff Development at the Montreal General Hospital, launched an updated Annotated Bibliography on Health, Communication and Literacy and a Travelling Resource Trunk on Health, Communication and Literacy at the Montreal General Hospital, part of the new McGill University Hospital Centre.
Studies show that levels of education and health can be correlated and that communication between clients and health care providers - in both oral and written forms - can make a difference in the quality of care and in the reduction of errors in follow-up and preventive health care. There is a growing body of research supporting these claims. This Bibliography, an updated version of the 1995 bibliography, contains 23 additional annotations on selected articles written after 1995 on the subject of literacy and health, and published in professional health journals.
