Please excuse this if it is a repeat.  I was actually searching for
something else when I arrived at a site offering me a download of the Health
and Literacy Compendium.  I didn't scan many pages before I was downloading
the 'pdf' document.  You can access this resource and just read or download
at - http://hub1.worlded.org/health/comp/

The subtitle of the publication is, "An annotated bibliography of print and
Web-based health materials for use with limited-literacy adults."  There are
lists of actual materials, including some in languages other than English.
I think Russian has been requested on this list before, and two Russian
listings were offered.  One was an interesting publication called,
Multilingual Health Education Resource Guide, which I think has been noted
on this list before.  If not, that is a publication of the Center for
Applied Linguistics in Washington, DC.  It's available for $7 from: Refugee
Service Center, Center for Applied Linguistics, 4646 40th Street, NW,
Washington, DC 20016-1859.  Phone: 202/362-0700.  Margo
