  1. IRELAND AND NORTHERN IRELAND’S POPULATION HEALTH OBSERVATORY (INIsPHO)www.inispho.org

  2. The observatory aims to support those working to improve health and reduce health inequalities by • producing and disseminating health intelligence • strengthening the research and information infrastructure on the island of Ireland

  3. The Observatory’s website contains a number of key tools and services • INIsPHO (Online) Library • INIsPHO (Online) Data • All-Ireland electronic Health Library (AIeHL) • Publications • Extranet (to support INIsPHO projects in a secure environment)

  4. All-Ireland electronic Health Library (AIeHL)

  5. Concept • The AIeHL is a network of interoperable websites across the island of Ireland • This interoperability means that a website can work with other websites to increase the information resources available to the individual user • Thus an individual user on one website is able to search all other “interoperable” websites in a single search

  6. How is this possible? • Resources within each website have been classified using metadata elements which have been agreed by all member sites • Metadata are “information about information” and describe key features of a resource e.g Title, Creator, Subject, Description, Date, Type • The metadata elements for each resource within each website are sent daily to a central cache which can then be searched

  7. Phase 1 Phase one of the AIeHL has made the following websites interoperable • HSE Irish Health Publications Archive • Healthdata (HSE) • INIsPHO Library (IPH) • National Documentation Centre on Drug Use (HRB) • Wellnet (IfH, EHSSB)

  8. Metadata feeds for shared resources Member websites National Documentation Centre on use (HRB) Wellnet (IfH) Local knowledge resources Archive of Irish Health Publications (HSE) Metadata Cache healthdata.info (HSE) INIsPHO (IPH) Search engines Metadata standards Database structures All-Ireland electronic Health Library: a web-based network of interoperable libraries

  9. The AIeHL can be accessed from any member website. To access the AIeHL from the INIsPHO website go to the Library section on the Homepage

  10. Within the library you can search just the INIsPHO website, all websites under the Association of Public Health Observatories or all websites within the All-Ireland electronic Health Library

  11. Within the AIeHL you can search using a key word or phrase or using National Public Health Language terms

  12. You can also restrict your search to individual websites or creators

Concept The INIsPHO (Online) Library contains a wide variety of resources, both qualitative and quantitative, about the population’s health and the factors that affect it Some of these resources have been developed as part of individual collections within the library One such collection is FOTOCHAT (Online)

  20. FOTOCHAT (Online) This is a series of photographs taken by Derek Speirs as part of Pavee Point’s FOTOCHAT educational resource The photographs have been developed into an on-line resource which can be viewed separately or within the INIsPHO library

  21. Structure of FOTOCHAT (Online) The photographs have been grouped under a framework based upon Dahlgren and Whitehead’s model of the social determinants of health

  22. Clicking above each factor on the model will take you to the resources within FOTOCHAT under this area
