Holocaust & Genocide Collection

Temple B’Nai Abraham World War II Holocaust and Genocide Collection

The opportunity to learn from the past in order to improve the future.

In 2019, the Meriden Public Library received a large gift from Temple B’nai Abraham to create and maintain a Holocaust Collection as a designated area within the Meriden Public Library. The Temple also donated its multimedia Holocaust collection as a valued resource for research and education. This donation enables the community and generations to come to learn about the World War II Holocaust and other genocides.

To visit the collection, please see staff during library open hours.
