Birth of a clearinghouse
LF Lipsett
In 1976 the National Commission on Diabetes recommended the establishment of a diabetes information and education clearinghouse on a national level. This undertaking was initiated by the Director, National Institute of Arthritis, Metabolism, and Digestive Diseases, National Institutes of Health, and plans were developed in 1977. Printed diabetes materials for patients, professionals, and the public are being gathered and will be annotated and then published as subject bibliographies. In addition, The Diabetes Clearinghouse will coordinate and encourage diabetes-related education and information activities and efforts throughout the United States.
