DORSHEI EMET'S LITTLE FREE LIBRARY
Our Little Free Library has outgrown the shelf at the shul entrance, so we've moved it to the lounge.  Please feel free to borrow any of the books in the bookcase on the left (where the phone is; books in the unit on the right should not leave the shul).  We appreciate all of the donations everyone brought in, especially the books for children and youth.  There has been more giving than borrowing lately, so the Kehilla Committee invites you to please help yourself to a book or two!

LITTLE FREE LIBRARIAN WANTED
The Kehilla Committee is looking for a Little Free Librarian (but you can be any height) to organise and tidy books.  Please contact Beth Blackmore (514-279-5742 / beth.emunah@gmail.com) if you can contribute to shul life in this way.
