LIBRARY
(Continued from Page 1)
to duplicate or replace the func-
tion of the public library. The
main objective is to place at the
disposal of the Jewish commun-
ity of Detroit a balanced and fine
collection of books in the vari-
ous branches of Jewish learning.
The aim of the Library to be-
come a significant center for the
Jewish book in Detroit was
brought closer to realization when
the United Hebrew Schools de-
posited in the Library its valu-
able collection of Hebraica. The
selection committee has sought
to augment this original collec-
tion with the works of modern
Hebrew writers which have sub-
sequently appeared. The depart-
ment of Yiddish literature has
likewise been greately developed
and the various Yiddish books in
the field of belles-lettres and of
scholarship have been given a
place on the Library shelves. The
scope of the Library's collection
is evidenced by the number of de-
partments which are represented.
There are sections on religion,
philosophy, literature, history, bio-
graphy, fiction, music, art, Zion-
ism and juvenile literature. The
indispensable books of reference
and research, such as encyclope-
dias, dictionary, concordances,
standard historical works and bio-
graphical material are also at the
disposal of the student and read-
er. The Library has a valuable
and large collection of pamphlets,
pictures and articles. It sub-
scribes to more than fifty maga-
zines in Hebrew, English and Yid-
dish published in the United
States, Palestine, England and
other countries. From time to
time exhibits are arranged to
bring to the attention of the pub-
lic some specific anniversary. A
very find display marks the an-
nual observance of Jewish Book
Week. The 70th anniversary of
the birth of Chaim Nachman
Malik is being honored by a dis-
play of books by and about the
greatest modern Hebrew poet.
The popularity of the Library
is indicated by the fact that more
than 2,300 people are now regis-
tered as regular borrowers, hold-
ing cards entitling them to the
use of the Library facilities. The
readers who frequent the Library
represent a cross-section of the
Detroit Jewish community. Men
and women of all trends and
opinions look upon the Library of
Congregation Shaarey Zedek as
an important cultural and edu-
cational institution intended not
