Maurer Library
The Maurer Library of the BJE has recently purchased the newest edition of Encyclopedia Judaica.
Published originally in 1971, Encyclopedia Judaica has been the leading source for information on the Jewish people, the Jewish faith, and the state of Israel. The Second Edition continues the tradition of the Encyclopedia as the best source of coverage of how the Jewish people have influenced history and shaped the modern world.
Encyclopedia Judaica will be available not only in a 22 volume print edition, but also in an EBOOK version. Patrons of the Maurer library will be able to access this electronic database from any remote location through the BJE website.
For its all-inclusive coverage of Jewish life, culture, history and religion, the Encyclopedia Judaica earned a place on Library Journal's "50 Best Reference Sources of the past millennium."
For more information about the Electronic version of Encyclopedia Judaica, please contact the library at (317) 255-3124, ext. 3328.
