Banned Books Week is an annual event which celebrates the freedom to read and spotlights attempts to censor books in the U.S. Yet, as health care professionals, we understand that some information cannot be shared. During Banned Books Week, the Medical Campus is leveraging the national spotlight on banned books to answer these questions:

• What health information do you personally have the right to access?
• Is health information your responsibility to keep private?

From September 18 - 24, outside the MDC Medical Campus library, a bulletin board displays the importance of avoiding HIPAA violations with examples of common errors in practice.
