Children's Library
Our expanding Children’s Library is located in the classroom on the third floor. These books are available for families to enjoy while attending Beth Immanuel services and to check out to enjoy at home. Below you will find information on how your family can register to check out books, a link to the library catalog, library policies, and how to make donations.

Book Donations:
We are always looking for more titles to add to our library. Here are some ways to donate books:
- Purchase a book from our Amazon wishlist.
- Donate books your family is no longer using.
- Purchase books from a local bookstore.
Our library consists of Jewish and Christian titles that are consistent with Messianic Jewish values. If you unsure about whether or not a book would be a good fit for the Children's Library, please ask before purchasing/donating. You can check the library catalog to see if we already have the book you wish to donate. Donated items can be placed in the donation bin in the Children's Library.
Any donated items that are not a good fit for the library will be sold to a used book store, and the money will be used to purchase books for the library.
