Jewish Studies Collection Description

The collection is maintained by the Jewish Studies Acquisitions Coordinator.

The Jewish Studies Collection supports teaching and research in Jewish Studies. There has never been a Judaica collection as an independent unit. Relevant materials have been acquired by individual librarians on the basis of needs expressed by their faculty and student constituency. As a result there is a significant, if not unified, collection of Judaica materials, consisting of 30,000 volumes, that are located mostly in the Bookstacks, but also in the Reference Library, Undergraduate Library, and various departmental libraries, especially the History and Modern Languages Libraries.
