Our temple has two amazing library collections totaling nearly 5000 items, multiple learning spaces, books for members to borrow, 
and an Internet cafe. In addition, we have WIFI throughout the building. Please feel free to visit our libraries any time the building is open.
It's easy to borrow a book, just fill out the card located in the back of the book and leave it in the designated spot in the libraries or on the New Arrivals book cart located in the temple lobby.
We Have Two Libraries
- Sheila & Harvey Randall Adult Library: located on the upper level across from the Sisterhood David Hatkoff Room. This library also houses our Brotherhood Holocaust Center and Family History Center.
- Lewis Lurie Library houses our: Holland Family Multi-Media and Story Center, Donald E. Schein Resource Center, and our Children’s Library.
Discard Book Cart
Pick up a book from our discard cart located in the temple lobby/cafe area for a $1 donation. New books are added often…Jewish and secular. Many books are donated by our temple members. If you have books to donate, please contact Mindy Holland before bringing them to the temple. The money raised goes directly back into our Library Book Fund.
