Abstract: Project St. Hope built on the strengths of an academic/ community partnership to promote a healthy lifestyle for individuals living with HIV/AIDS and to facilitate access to electronic HIV/ AIDS information resources. This outreach project utilized a mobile laptop computer lab to provide hands-on education/training at three HIV outpatient clinics. Education/training sessions were conducted by an HIV/AIDS educator and a health sciences librarian. Sessions were subject-specific and concluded with administration of a post-session evaluation. Interviews and a final focus group were also used to evaluate Project St. Hope. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
