Creativity Center and Library
Creativity Center
The Creativity Center provides programs and resources for our teachers and our community to learn and share ideas in a supportive and exciting environment. In the Creativity Center, you’ll find a media center, die cuts, rubber stamps, state-of-the-art educational equipment, tools and supplies for creating educational materials, and more. Educators from all religious streams join together in preparing creative educational materials, lesson plans, curricula, games, displays and bulletin boards. Teachers further develop their professional skills by attending workshops or drop in for a one-on-one consultation.

Library
The Bureau Library, a full-service lending library, is the Jewish
resource for the Jewish and general community. The Library offers books
and information covering the entire spectrum of Judaism and the Jewish
experience. It provides resources for educators on curriculum
development, classroom management issues and Judaic content. The
Library provides patrons with materials such as books, periodicals,
videos, including the Jewish Heritage Video Colleciton on VHS and DVD, as well as consultation on curriculum and planning.
The Bureau Library is currently operating on limited hours and relies on a volunteer staff. If you're looking for resources to review or borrow, please call the Bureau offices at 401.331.0956 first to be sure someone will be available to help you.
