HAPPENINGS @ BETH EL
A benefit of membership at Beth El Congregation is access to this digital eLibrary. We are proud to let you know that this library is one of the first digital libraries available to any synagogue anywhere. Once you have registered using the Access Code provided by us, you can use its wonderful resources from virtually any Internet-connected computer. The library contains titles covering Torah, Commentaries, History, Culture, Hebrew, as well as other topics. Currently, the library includes 197 titles, in time more may be added, depending on the needs of our members. There are also many books for children. This library is part of the collection of Judaic libraries available at ebookshuk.com.
As current members renew their membership and new members join Beth El, they will be given an access code for the library link to the library. If you are a current Beth El member and have not received your access code, please contact Janette Silverman jsilverman@bethelphoenix.com
