Temple Emanuel Library
Temple Emanuel Library Mission Statement
The Temple Emanuel Library, located on the second floor of the Jefferson Road campus adjacent to the Religious School wing, is an outstanding resource for materials in all media representing the broad spectrum of the Jewish experience.
The mission of the Temple Emanuel library is to support the educational programs and activities of the Temple by providing print and multi-media materials of education, entertainment and enrichment to our Pre-school, Religious and Hebrew schools and the entire congregation at large. The library is available for congregants as well as students, teachers, clergy and staff members to read, browse, relax, question, learn and explore the library resources with the assistance of the librarian and the library volunteers.
The library staff is committed to providing service that will produce a positive library experience by offering intellectual and social stimulation while deepening Jewish learning and experience.
Our Librarian, Sarah Bregman, was born and raised in Haifa, Israel. She received her B.A.(summa cum laude) in Bible and in Information Science and Librarianship from Bar Ilan University in Ramat Gan, Israel in 1991. In 1998 she received her M.A. in Bible from The Hebrew University in Jerusalem. From 1990 to 2005 she served as Judaica, Music and Serials librarian at the S. Zalman & Ayala Abramov Library at the Hebrew Union College in Jerusalem. In 2006 Sarah moved to Greensboro with her husband, Prof. Marc Bregman, head of the Jewish Studies Program in the Religious Studies Department of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Since 2007 she has been serving as the librarian of Temple Emanuel.
