Bookstore for Professionals
Here at our bookstore for professionals you will find a wide-range of book resources that you may find helpful.
You may be able to find some or all of these publications at your Public Library. However, if you are planning to purchase a book, we ask that you please consider buying it online through Amazon.com using our affiliate store below.
By using our store below, you will help the Mission of the Postpartum Resource Center of New York. We receive a percentage of each sale – all of which goes to the vital programs and services we provide (and many of which are free to New York State moms, dads, and families).
We update our store with relevant new publications whenever they become available. However, if you are looking for a specific publication and/or subject matter related to postpartum depression / perinatal mood and anxiety disorders but cannot find it here, please contact us by email or phone and we will be glad to assist you in any way possible.
