Beatty Cohan, a psychotherapist, sex therapist, and advice columnist, will share tips for finding that special someone with a little help from popular dating apps during a program on Saturday at 1 p.m. at the East Hampton Library.

According to the library's promotional material, "3 in 10 U.S. adults have used an online dating site or app at some point — including nearly 1 in 10 who did so within the last year." There will be light refreshments, and a raffle for a chance to win a free therapy session.

Reservations for both programs are required through the adult reference desk, by phone, or on the library's website.
