About the Jewish American Heritage Month eBook Display

About Jewish American Heritage Month

On April 20, 2006, President George W. Bush proclaimed that May would be Jewish American Heritage Month. The month of May was chosen due to the highly successful celebration of the 350th Anniversary of American Jewish History in May 2004, which was organized by the Commission for Commemorating 350 Years of American Jewish History. 

About the Jewish American Heritage Month Virtual eBook Display

The CLTCC Library in conjunction with the CLTCC Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Taskforce invites you to celebrate Jewish American Heritage Month through a curated virtual display of ebooks written by Jewish American writers about the Jewish experience.
