MedlinePlus Survey Results 2003

The National Library of Medicine would like to thank those of you who responded to our MedlinePlus Visitor Profile Survey conducted on the MedlinePlus Web site in February 2003.

There are many more users of MedlinePlus now, and you are returning to the site more often. We are gratified that you are even more satisfied with both the health information NLM provides and with its site navigation than you were in 2001. Visitors from all over the world are using MedlinePlus en español, launched in September 2002. Input from our Spanish speaking users is especially important as we plan new content and features.

Your comments and suggestions will help guide us to continuously improve MedlinePlus to meet your needs.
