I called and got their recording with their hours.
I am assuming there is a charge for membership. Do you know what it is? Is it a family membership or individual?
What kind of limits do they have on the number of books?

There's a leasing library on 17th avenue and 43rd street, called 'The Library'. It is run by the woman who used to work in Frankel's Library on 16th avenue. There is a nice selection of books. Sorry I don't know too many details, I haven't been there in a long while.

I have a BPL card. We do take out books. Their Jewish book inventory is not very complete.
Someone recommended a specific book that I wanted to read and then consider to buy... That is why I am inquiring about a Jewish Book Library. While I am at it, I can stock up on some summer reading...

BTDT and I don't suggest to others. Being that I'm an adult that cannot control what I pick up to read, I naturally think that everyone else can't either. Of course, most adults are fine in the BPL, but one has to know herself. There is a lot of trash there.

1) Ahi Ezer: E. 7th between R & S
2) Beth Shaul UMiriam: Ave U and E. 22 (I think)
3) Kensington Jewish Library: 601 E. 3rd St.
I dont have the phone numbers for them anymore, but you should be able to google some info. IIRC, they all charge $18 membership per family per year, but each of them has a different limit on how many books you can take out.
Happy Reading!

the brooklyn public library system gets a lot of jewish and feldheim books. request them online and when you go to the branch, don't go to the shelves (I never do); juust get your holds, check them out and go.

Would love update on Kensington Jewish Library or any other Jewish lending library in BP/Flatbush. Do these libraries have adult books also? Are they well stocked and have a big selection?How long can you take out books for? TIA Sick of the trashy books one can get at the local BPL......
