Got Too Many Books?
Are you a member of a book club? What do you do with the bestsellers after you discuss them? Are they collecting dust on your shelves or piling up on your nightstand?
Do you like to buy real books? Do you like to be the first one on the block to read a book as soon as it’s published but don’t want to give it a permanent home? Has a friend given you a must-read book and told you not to return it?
The Rabbi Dudley Weinberg Library Can Help You Out!
We are looking for new or gently used hardcover bestsellers of interest to the Jewish reader.We promise to offer them a good home and to make sure they “get around.” Thanks for donating your good books to the library. You can drop them off at the Lifelong Learning Office.
*Please note that we are interested only in recent bestsellers.
Contact Paula Fine at librarian@ceebj.org if you have any questions.

Wandering Library Books
Calling All Seriously Overdue Books! Please Come Home to the Library Shelves! No Questions Asked! We are trying to locate missing books that were checked out the old-fashioned way (by hand), and were not recorded in the computer. We’ll be sending out overdue notices soon. If you receive one, please check your bookshelves, car, office …. any place where the book might be hiding. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve had the book; we’ll just be happy to have it back. We promise, no questions asked and no guilt-inducing looks from the library staff. However, if the book is lost, we ask that you remit the price of the book so we can replace it.
Please remember that you can request a book or renew it by calling the office. To access the library catalog, simply click on the link just above. We’re adding new books all the time now. Check us out.
