Library

Project Overview 
Talmud Torah Hadar Yosef has developed a plan for the creation of a library in memory of Avi and Avital Volansky  H”YD.

In 2003 at the beginning of the school year, Avi and Avital Volansky, both teachers at the Talmud Torah were murdered on their way home to Eli. To both Avi and Avital, education and the study of Torah were a central foundation of their lives – in their memory we hope to create a quiet place for learning, reading, and the study of Torah.

Project Description

The library will consist of a Quiet Reading corner, an Audio library for listening to music and stories and a Game Corner a place to play games of logic and reasoning as well as hand-crafted wood games that are designed to develop the thought process.

The objectives of the library are:

• A place of reflection in memory of our dear teachers
• A quiet place for reading
• An indoor learning and recreation center that will enable classes to take a break from classroom studies for indoor activities when winter weather does not permit outdoor activities
• A place for a reading enrichment program
• A place to encourage extracurricular study and research activities
