January 1996 through December 2000 441 Citations Prepared by 2001 April U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES National Library of Medicine Each bibliography in the Current Bibliographies in Medicine (CBM) series covers a distinct subject area of biomedicine and fulfills a current awareness function. Online databases and the Internet are the primary sources for citations in these bibliographies. Relevance to the subject is the only criterion for inclusion of works in a CBM; the format, ownership, or location of the material are not considered. Other publications in the Current Bibliographies in Medicine series are available through the Library's World Wide Web site at http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/resources.html. Comments and suggestions on this series may be addressed to: Karen Patrias, Editor PubMed®, LOCATORplus®, and the NLM Gateway The Library offers three interfaces to its databases; all are available on the World Wide Web. PubMed provides access primarily to the journal literature; LOCATORplus is an online catalog of the books, journal titles, and audiovisuals held by the Library; and the NLM Gateway serves as an entry point for a variety of databases and other Library products.

Public Health Informatics
Public Health Informatics is defined as the systematic application of information and computer sciences to public health practice, research, and learning. It is the discipline that integrates public health with information technology. The development of this field and dissemination of informatics knowledge and expertise to public health professionals is the key to unlocking the potential of information systems to improve the health of the nation.
In 1996 the National Library of Medicine (NLM) compiled a bibliography that provided a review of the literature of this newly emerging field. That work, CBM 96-4 Public Health Informatics (fully cited within), included 471 citations covering the time period of 1980 to 1995. The current bibliography includes 441 citations covering only five years --1996 through 2000. This reflects a nearly three-fold increase in the publication rate compared to the previous period.
The bibliography focuses on the use of computers and communications to support population-based public health functions. As in the prior bibliography, we have excluded the primary care services often provided by public health authorities. The literature on consumer health informatics issues is also excluded. However, we have included selected population-based health promotion material.
Topics covered reflect major public health functions: population surveillance, population screening, registries, health promotion, information systems and services, data linking and mining, and workforce education and assessment. Articles on all aspects of immunization (including immunization registries) are grouped together under Immunization Programs and Issues. Also, we added bioterrorism to the Emergency/Disaster category. Publications increased in this area after the public health community was given a mandate to develop emergency plans and treatment procedures in case of bioterrorist attacks. Finally, we added the new category of Genetics Programs and Counseling.
The selected references in the bibliography include journal titles and articles, books and book chapters, technical reports, dissertations, conference proceedings and papers, and CD-ROMs as well as Internet sites. In general, editorials and letters have been omitted. Both English and foreign language publications are cited. References are arranged by subject and appear under only one topic.
At the end of the references we have included a brief section of Internet resources. These include organizational and program homepages. Monographs, slide shows, and articles available on the Internet appear under the appropriate subject category.
The compilers wish to thank Dora Smith, NLM, for her production assistance.
