Temple Micah has an evolving and functioning lending library of more than 4,000 volumes, including a considerable reference collection and annual subscriptions to several journals and newspapers. The library resides in two places: the upstairs Reading Room off the galleria and downstairs in the Beth Midrash. The Reading Room contains a large collection of non-fiction, fiction, poetry, and four special sections: Biography, Family Life, Kol Isha, and Cookbooks. The new Reading Room is a place to relax, browse and borrow whatever is of interest. Many beautiful art books reside there, as well.
 
The Beth Midrash houses the reference collection, as well as books on Bible and Talmud. There is a special niche full of great books for our children. Other than the reference books, marked with a red dot, the holdings may be borrowed by any temple member.

Each circulating book contains a pocket in the back with a card. Please record the date and your name. Leave the card in the box provided. There are no firm due dates, but please return borrowed books as soon as possible.

Book donations are welcome at any time. New and appropriate materials will be added to the collection. Members are asked to donate at least one book each year. The library has dedication bookplates to place in books upon request. Our annual Book Fair at Politics and Prose is a great place to shop for a donation. Also, we are eager to receive books on any subject written by Temple Micah members. The library cannot accept textbooks, small print paperbacks, religious school primers or prayer books.

Jenny Shankar is our current librarian.  Questions about the library can be directed to her.
