About Michigan Jewish Institute Library:
MJI’s Main Campus Library, housed at our main campus in West Bloomfield, parallels the college’s academic interests by offering a collection of technological, business and Judaic materials that are frequently cited by MJI faculty during course delivery. Most course syllabi refer to use of various library materials and students are expected to make use of these materials via required or suggested readings and research. MJI is a participating member of the Michicard System. This valuable resource allows students enrolled at MJI to use participating public libraries and over thirty academic collegiate libraries located in Michigan.
