Planned Parenthood and the Tompkins County Public Library have partnered in recognition of Women’s History Month to provide Library patrons with access to the wealth of information found in bestselling author Michelle Goldberg’s book “The Means of Reproduction: Sex, Power and the Future of the World.”
As part of their investment in informed and respected community conversations about women’s rights, Planned Parenthood generously donated 35 copies of the book to the Library. The copies will be prominently displayed near the Library’s New Release section throughout the month of March.
Goldberg’s book examines the global battle over women’s reproductive rights, pitting reformers against fundamentalists and exploring the effects of the divisive fight on the quest for individual freedom and worldwide development.
“'The Means of Reproduction' could not be more timely," said Casey Martinson, director of public affairs for Planned Parenthood of the Southern Finger Lakes. "It is appropriate during Women's History Month that we reflect not only on the history of women's liberation, but on its future. Planned Parenthood is working tirelessly to advance women's rights, and we hope this book inspires members of our community to join us in that advocacy."
