Becoming an AJL Accredited Library
When organizing a Jewish library, you want to be sure you meet the high standards set up by the Association of Jewish Libraries. The Synagogue, Schooland Center Division (SSC) of AJL has established specific guidelines formeeting these standards and offers a certificate of accreditation to libraries that qualify. Receiving accreditation also means that you, the librarian, are qualified and able to manage anup-to-date collection and that you know the community which you serve. Other reasons for receiving accreditation are:
Accreditation is offered at the basic and advanced level. An Accreditation Committee evaluates applications and assists applicants in achieving accreditation.
To become accredited, the librarian or the library/media center must be a member of AJL
See the Accreditation Page on the AJL website for applications and further information.
