HaSifria: Community Library at the Boulder JCC
HaSifria at the Boulder JCC is the primary Jewish educational and informational resource for people in Boulder County, including teachers, students, clergy, communal institutions, and the community at large. The idea for a community Jewish library originated with the Boulder Jewish Educator's Council, a group that represents every congregation and learning institution in Boulder. The council wanted to create a centralized location to foster sharing and learning as a Jewish community for individual Jews, for congregations, and for the organizations that support Jewish life.
