About us

With the loss of operating funding from the Ontario Ministry of Health Promotion, the Consumer Health Information Service (CHIS) located at the Toronto Public Library closed on May 8, 2009.

The Toronto Public Library will continue to provide health information to local users. Please visit the Business and Health Sciences centre at the Toronto Reference Library, call the library's centralized phone service at 416-393-7131.

Toronto Public Library's Health and Wellness Wiki (former CHIS' wiki) can help you access a wide range of health and medical information online, and supports people in gaining greater control over their own health through access to health information.
