PJ Library
PJ Library is a program of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation,〔(Harold Grinspoon Foundation )〕 a North American Jewish non-profit organization based in West Springfield, Massachusetts. It was created in December 2005 as a Jewish engagement and literacy program for Jewish and interfaith families with young children.
PJ Library is modeled after Dolly Parton's Imagination Library〔(Imagination Library official website )〕 program. PJ Library sends out free Jewish children's books and music to Jewish and interfaith families on a monthly basis by subscription. It is a North America program that is implemented on a local level. The program is largely underwritten by HGF, but depends on local supporting partners.〔http://www.pjlibrary.org/Donors-and-Funders.aspx〕
==Distribution and book selection==
The PJ Library program is available in communities throughout the U.S. and Canada. Tens of thousands of Jewish children have a PJ Library book or CD mailed to them each month. The PJ Library books and music are available for children between 6 months and 8 years of age, depending on the available funding in each community.
Children that have been enrolled in PJ Library receive age-appropriate books highlighting Jewish holidays, values, Bible stories, and folklore. Books are selected by the PJ Library Book Selection Committee. Working with authors, publishers and editors, the committee strives to ensure that the finest Jewish books for children find their way each month into the mailboxes of all PJ Library families. Many of the PJ Library books have won prestigious awards, including the Caldecott Medal and the Sydney Taylor Book Award. Several have been named as finalists for the National Jewish Book Award from the Jewish Book Council.
