Farewell Reception for Anne Dillibe

On Tuesday, February 1, the Graff Library staff will bid farewell to Anne Dillibe, who is retiring after 27 years at City of Hope.  Since joining the library staff in 1984, Anne has worked diligently to provide information to support patient care, research, and teaching.  We will miss her greatly.
