Society for Redistribution of
Used Jewish Religious Books

This charitable organisation in London which collected surplus and unwanted Jewish religious books for distribution to established Jewish organisations and charities is sadly no longer in operation.
 
Mr Erich Rosenthal, its founder and supporter, planted countless seeds in the form of machzorim and seforim of Torah and Talmud in Jewish communities in the United Kingdom and in western and eastern Europe. Mr Rosenthal passed away in London on 24th April 2002 and was buried in Israel.
