OntarioMD.ca (www.ontariomd.ca) is a Web portal which provides clinicians access to a variety of information resources. The content delivered via the portal is organized and presented according to lessons gleaned through the ongoing engagement of portal users and other stakeholders. Recent studies regarding the information needs of clinicians (Davies (2007) and Perley et al. (2007), have concluded that online content must meet certain criteria in order to be effective. These findings include the need for content to be: available at the point of care, easily searchable, customizable and anticipate the user's needs. Since 2006, OntarioMD.ca has been developing resources which address these criteria. This presentation will demonstrate how OntarioMD.ca engaged in the development of resources and best practices which address the clinician's need for reputable point of care information.
