The Health & Medical Book Club is a collaboration between Weill Cornell Medicine's Myra Mahon Patient Resource Center & New York Public Library's 67th Street Library.
The book club takes place bi-monthly at the Myra Mahon Patient Resource Center at 1305 York Avenue, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10021. Reading all or most of the book is encouraged. Those unfamiliar with the book, but interested in the book's topic, are also welcome to attend. The author of the book will not be present.
If you need the book, the 67th Street Library branch (328 East 67th Street, New York, NY 10065), should have copies on hand to borrow. Physical, audio, and eBook copies can also be borrowed via any NYPL.

The Myra Mahon Patient Resource Center aims to make accurate, science-based health information easily available so that patients and their families can make informed decisions about their care. The center opened in February 2007 through generous donations from the Arthur and Myra Mahon Foundation, the Adrian and Jesse Archbold Charitable Trust and the Dean’s Challenge matching funds.
The 67th Street branch of The New York Public Library dates to 1905 and was built to resemble the Yorkville branch. More than 100 years later, it continues to serve Manhattan’s bustling Upper East Side.
