Torah Scroll Request

I have been trained in the proper handling of the scroll.*
I would like the Archivist or a Librarian present at the class.*
I would like the scroll brought to a separate classroom.*

Disclaimer and Rules of Usage

General Guidelines:

  • Please submit the Torah Scroll Request form at least three business days before its intended use date.
  • A confirmation email will be sent listing the designated library staff contact person, as well as the pick-up and drop-off time of the scroll (or the time period the viewing room will be unlocked, in the event that a class will not remove the scroll from its room).
  • Priority will be given to the first professor to request a specific time slot.
  • Reasonable efforts will be made by the library staff to accommodate classes scheduled outside of regular work hours.
  • The Torah can be brought to any classroom in Sweeting during the class’ scheduled period, or it can be brought to room 008 in the library’s lower level at any scheduled time.
  • Professors are required to instruct their students in appropriate and respectful use of the Torah. Classroom photos (no flash) may be taken at the discretion of each professor.
  • Professors may request the presence of a librarian in their classroom session for instructional assistance.
  • Because the scroll is not kosher, gloves are not required when handling it; however, anyone wishing to touch the scroll must have been trained by a librarian or a professor in the correct procedure before access is granted.

Special Procedures:

  • If a fire or lockdown drill should occur while the scroll is “checked out” to a professor, it is that professor’s responsibility to carry it out of the classroom and keep it safe. Responsibility for the scroll reverts back to the library when the scroll is “checked in.”
  • Library staff will keep Public Safety apprised of the scroll’s location at all times.
  • Proposals for using the Torah for any extra-curricular purposes should be directed to the Provost Cabinet.
