Resource Library

In order to make health information available to all members of our community, the Ithaca Health Alliance contributes books and funds for healthcare media to the Durland Memorial Alternatives Library at Cornell University and the Tompkins County Public Library.

Funded by a TCPL Friends of the Library Community Organization Grant, the Health Alliance has expanded the library available to visitors at the Ithaca Free Clinic. Our library includes books on a variety of healthcare topics including Nutrition, Herbalism, Yoga, Acupuncture, Medical Reference, Women's Health, Family Medicine, and the Healing Arts. We encourage you to stop by and check out our expanded library and educate yourself on a variety of healthcare issues!
