The Emma Lazarus Library is dedicated to compiling and maintaining a collection of books and other educational materials that reflect the comprehensive experiences of the Jewish people and the varied expressions of Jewish life. We make this collection available to the Temple Emek Shalom family and to the people of the Rogue Valley, to foster knowledge and understanding of Judaism, within our congregation and among our neighbors.
We invite you to take advantage of all that the Library offers.
