With a completely computerized access catalog, the Resource Center houses well over 3000 individual items. The most popular of these are the over 200 available videos.

PBS Presents Bill Moyer’s “Beyond Hate” On Monday, May 13 on PBS, Bill Moyers explores one of humanity’s most basic instincts: hate. In MOYERS/BEYOND HATE, the prize-winning broadcast journalist looks at hate — from world wars to violence and discrimination against individuals and commu nities. The 90-minute special takes viewers from Oslo, Norway, the site last summer of an interna tional conference “The Anatomy of Hate,” to places like Benson- hurst, New York; South Central Los Angeles; and Portland, Oregon. Here, Americans are grappling with some of the forms hate takes — racial intolerance, white supremacy and gang war fare — and with its tragic results. The program is filled with moving personal testimonies of those who have faced, and triumphed over hate: Myrlie Evers, the widow of slain civil rights worker Medgar Evers, Nelson Mandela, Elie Wiesel and Vaclav Havel, among oth ers. Each recounts the journey to a place beyond hate. Moyers also visits the future — schoolchildren’s programs in Bensonhurst designed to foster understanding and end fear, and Arab and Israeli youths travel ing to the international Legacies program in Virginia, from where they can bring home new tools to take them past hate.

These are on loan from the Cumberland County Public Library which has a special service for non-English readers. The Foreign Language Center in Fayetteville, NC loans books in almost every language to other libraries. Thanks to Jenny Ros enthal who brought this service to my attention. Although the Speizman Jew ish Library has books of Jewish content only, most of the Rus sian books are not in this cat egory. However, we are pleased to take part in the Jewish com munity’s effort to help the Soviet Jews in their adjustment to Charlotte. 1, personally, know that h takes time until one can read and enjoy literature in another lan guage. When our new Ameri cans become comfortable with reading English they will make it a regular habit to vish the Speizman Jewish Library. Thanks also to Penny Eisen- berg and Temple Israel for their donation of Jewish books in the •v\jy ^ Books can be our friends. looks Arc TmHra; By Ho«ird Bofot and Duud B. Sync Russian language. Penny select ed wonderful children’s books which are being shared with the Lubavitch Preschool. Roz Coo per, representing Temple Israel, added Judaica books for adults.
