Abstract

Lotfia Mahmoud Refaat Shenishan*

For many reasons that cannot be counted, the presence of health websites on the Internet has been replaced by misleading websites with false or incorrect information. Their presence has become a threat to good medical websites and threatens correct information on the Internet, and thus threatens the health and lives of users who obtain information from such misleading websites. Therefore, users must realize the relationship between the quality and source of information published on the Internet and distinguish between reliable and unreliable sources. This article attempts to highlight the role of the World Health Organization and the American Medical Association, in addition to the role of libraries, in setting standards to control the quality of digital health information, and the standards set by each organization to ensure the quality of digital health information.
