Library Vision
The Library's mission is to provide resources and services in support of the teaching and learning needs of the Northern Westchester Jewish Community, and to create a Beth HaMidrash, a house of study, for Jewish life in all its aspects. To fulfill this mission, the Library commits to:
* The Internet * The libraries of The Jewish Theological Seminary
* The Jewish resources available in the NY Metro Region
The Yorktown Jewish Center, a Conservative Synagogue affiliated with the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism, was founded in 1952. It is a fully egalitarian, modern synagogue with traditional values. A library has been a part of its offerings since the earliest years - and numerous supporters have helped fund an expanded library during the last two waves of renovation, seeing a library and Beth HaMidrash as essential to the role of a synagogue. We encourage your support in joining "Friends of the Yorktown Jewish Library," to enable fulfillment of our vision. We envision a library advisory board composed of members of the "Friends of the Yorktown Jewish Library." Please take a moment to consider a gift - and any recommendations you might have on how to achieve our vision. Join/Renew Your "Friends of the Yorktown Jewish Library" Membership Today!
