Abstract
The Internet has great potential in assisting cancer patients and their families find relevant information. However, this potential may not be fully realized in Cowlitz County Washington. The goal of this project is to design a cancer information portal that contains three types of information: (1) Web links to cancer literature; (2) Local resource information such as library, support group, child care, counseling, spiritual care, etc, and (3) Special vendor information for a spectrum of products and services, such as prosthetics, nutrition, medical equipment, etc. To maintain the content of this portal ( add new information, remove outdated information and update existing information) a relational database was designed and created.
