Generation)
By Amalia Warshenbrot, Librarian, Speizman Jewish Library
On November 16 the Speizman
Jewish Library was honored at
Temple Beth El and on the 17th at
Temple Israel.
Honoring an institution is
greater than honoring the profes
sional who serves it. It honors the
people who visit there.
When talking about a library it
is about the people who borrow
books and magazines. It puts the
child who takes a holiday story in
the same place as the college stu
dent who writes a research paper.
It welcomes the Temple member
who checks out a cookbook and
the new Jew by choice who seeks
to expand his/her knowledge of
Judaism. We thank the Rabbis of
both Temples for their support. We
appreciate the efforts of Temple
Israel Library liaison Dr. Joe
Steiner and Temple Beth El liaison
Ginny Rosenberg for their efforts
to promote the library. Supporting
the library is supporting reading.
Supporting the Speizman Jewish
Library is supporting Jewish edu
cation for all ages. The library was
created for the purpose of provid
ing Judaic resources to the mem
bers of the Charlotte Jewish com
munity as well as the community
at large.
The Microsoft Encarta book of
knowledge gives the best defini
tion for any library. “The central
mission of a library is to collect,
organize, preserve and provide
access to knowledge and informa
tion. In fulfilling this mission,
libraries preserve a valuable
record of culture that can be
passed down to succeeding gener
ations.”
Libraries are an essential link in
communication between past, pre
sent and future. Our collection of
about five thousand volumes is
that link. It is a privilege to be able

to try to hold that link stable.
The central mission as stated
above is: A. To Collect. We
expand the collection daily. Our
criteria is that the books’ content
or subject is Jewish. B. Organize.
We are proud to have our collec
tion on the database. It is cata
logued by subject, author and title.
With donations to the Friends of
the Library campaign, we will
improve it so that research will
give the best possible results. C.
