The Jewish Book Council (Hebrew: המועצה למען הספר היהודי באמריקה), founded in 1944, is an American organization encouraging and contributing to Jewish literature.[1][2] The goal of the council, as stated on its website, is "to promote the reading, writing and publishing of quality English language books of Jewish content in North America".[2] The council sponsors the National Jewish Book Awards, the JBC Network, JBC Book Clubs, the Visiting Scribe series, and Jewish Book Month. It previously sponsored the Sami Rohr Prize for Jewish Literature.[3] It publishes an annual literary journal called Paper Brigade.[2]
It broke off from the JCC Association on January 1, 1994, and became an independent not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation chartered in the State of New York.[4] Its primary support is from individuals, and from organizations and foundations in the Jewish community.[2]
