Lippman Library
The Abraham Lippman Library, the main circulating library at Rodef Shalom, is an 11,000-plus-item repository for literature and learning resources of interest to all members of Rodef Shalom. The library is accredited by the Association of Jewish Libraries.
​
The library easily accessible just off our Commons Area. Within the Lippman Library are the Glick Children’s Library—for Preschool and Religious School students—and the Broff Youth Area, containing our Young Adult and reference collections. The Lippman Library also circulates the Kaplan-Lefkowitz video collection.
​
Our library is open to the public, but borrowing is limited to our members and families enrolled in our Family Center Preschool and the Joint Jewish Education Program.

Did You Know?
If you are a Rodef Shalom member or if you have a child enrolled in the Family Center Preschool or J-JEP, you are able to check books out from the Lippman Library. If a book is on our shelves or in one of our displays, it is available to check out. The librarian or a library volunteer would be glad to help you.
​
However, if you can't find the librarian or a library volunteer, the checkout process is easy. Simply take the circulation card from the book, write the date and your name on the card, and place the card in the circulation card box at the circulation desk. Take the book with you, and enjoy! Bring the book back when you are finished with it. It's that simple.
