The Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) is an international organization dedicated to the production, collection, organization and dissemination of Judaic resources as a library, media, and information service. [1][2] AJL has members in the United States, Canada, Israel and over 22 other countries.[3]
It was formed through a merger of two organizations, The Jewish Librarians Association, founded in 1946, which concerned itself with collections of Judaica in academic, archival or research institutions, and The Jewish Library Association, founded in 1962,[4] which concerned itself with collections in the synagogue, school and community, and several other smaller libraries and media centers.
The organization has various professional development opportunities, including library training webinars.[5][6] and workshops, mentoring programs and continuing education opportunities. Scholarships are available to members who wish to pursue studies in Judaica and Hebraica librarianship.[7][8]
