Knowledge can be power, only if applied. Visit our Health Library!

I'm posting these banner ads to promote our new Health Library, see image.

I need help translating: "Knowledge can be power, only if applied. Visit our Health Library!"

This can be tricky, because this is based on an American expression: "Knowledge is power."

Not sure if that translates well.

I'm looking for something that says:

"Knowledge can be power, only if applied. Visit our Health Library!"

or something that says,

"Knowledge is power only when applied"

Get the idea?

Help!

El conocimiento es poder, pero solamente cuando (es) aplicado.
El conocimiento puede ser poder, pero solamente si lo aplica(s).

¡Visite (Visita) nuestra Biblioteca de Salud!

The versions in parentheses are informal. Both are singular. Could be plural, though.

El conocimiento (la sabiduría) puede ser poder, solo si es aplicado,
Visita nuestra ....."
Biblioteca: Place where book can be read/consulted.
Librería: Books store.
So, you can choose the word you need.
