Health and medical information services attract a great deal of attention in public libraries as a problem solution-type service next to business support services. This is a detailed report about the Health Information Corner (HIC) in Yokohama City Central Library, which opened on December 19, 2006 at which time there were few precedent examples in other public libraries nation-wide. It shows one possibility regarding a health and medical information service aimed at the general public. The report gives concrete examples regarding references and the terms used in the HIC and mentions cooperative efforts with other systems.
