Thousands of priceless treasures lie on the shelves and safes of the Central Chabad Library, right next door to 770. The average chossid, however, won’t have the chance to see the most precious of them. Until now, that is.

A new series, launched by Anash.org in partnership with the Rebbe’s library, will showcase some of the most unique and historic books and items in the Rebbe’s library.

  1. Informative but there was a Uid in Pittsburgh who built another shredder with a different height so when the Rebbe would address the crowd he could support himself on the shrender and he wouldn’t place the weight on his feet.
