Library and Cancer Resource Center to Partner for Information Sessions


Tompkins County Public Library and the Cancer Resource Center of the Finger Lakes, in recognition of National Cancer Prevention Month, will partner for free, weekly informational drop-in sessions.

Facilitated by Bob Riter, executive director of the Cancer Resource Center, these sessions will be held in the Library’s Avenue of the Friends Thursdays from 4 to 6 p.m. beginning February 5.  Riter will answer questions about cancer and direct attendees toward helpful Library and on-line resources.  A table of cancer-related resources will also be on display in the Library throughout the month of February.

Riter writes a regular column about cancer for the Ithaca Journal and is the author of a nationally distributed book, “When Your Life is Touched by Cancer: Practical Advice and Insights for Patients, Professionals and Those Who Care.”

The programs will continue through March 19; however there will be no session on March 5.

For more information, contact Riter at (607) 277-0960 or bob@crcfl.net.
