About Us - Welcome to the Veterans Health Library (VHL)

The Veterans Health Library (VHL) helps Veterans be best informed to make health care decisions.

This online health resource was created under the guidance of VA's Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention to help Veterans, their families, and caregivers understand and maintain their best health ─ no matter where they receive care.

The VHL features health information that's been reviewed by VA experts, including many pages that are available in both English and Spanish. Veterans can access learning materials in different formats such as webpages, videos, online guides, healthy recipes, and decision aid tools. It is available anywhere there is Internet access.

The VHL brings together these many resources to help Veterans and their families understand and manage their health conditions. It also helps them talk with their health care team and share decisions about their health. VA clinical staff can share information from the VHL to help their patients learn more.

Take a look at the Web Tour video on the home page to learn how to use the VHL to stay well and well-informed.

You can bookmark the VHL website and access it anytime. You can also visit the VHL from the My HealtheVet homepage.
