Rare Book Collection from the Montreal Jewish Public Library
Books from the Rare Book Collection date from 1481 and will be available to view. They provide a snapshot of the Jewish literary tradition. After the Holocaust, the Jewish Restitution Organization was responsible for reuniting stolen and hidden books with their owners. Those books that could not be repatriated with their owners were distributed to libraries around the world.
