We’re pleased to announce that the holdings of Leo Baeck College, Kingston University, Middle Temple, Leeds Public Libraries and the National Army Museum have been added to the Library Hub Discover service.
Leo Baeck College
The Leo Baeck College Library houses one of the finest collections of Judaica in Europe. A Jewish Studies library in the widest possible sense: our collections cover every area of Judaism and Jewish life, thought and culture, including books in English, Hebrew, German, Yiddish, French and Russian, from traditional, professional and academic literature. Our Main Collection is enhanced by rare books, archival and digital material, and donations from Rabbis, teachers and scholars which makes researching in our collections an extraordinary voyage of discovery.
