Book Collection

Gerald K. Stone has collected books by and about Canadian Jewry since the 1980s.  In 2009, he donated more than 2,000 volumes in English, French, Yiddish and Hebrew to the ​University of Ottawa Library to enhance the research value of its holdings in Judaica and strengthen the foundation for the university's Jewish Canadian studies program.  Parts of his collection enhance other research libraries.

Catalog of the Gerald K. Stone Collection of Judaica: A Bibliographical Resource for Canadian Jewish Studies.  Boston: Academic Studies Press, 2020. This award-winning volume is a descriptive catalog of Gerald's Judaica collection. Logically organized, indexed and selectively annotated, the Catalog identifies some 6,000 documentary resources which collectively promote an understanding of Jewish life, literature and history in Canada. An introduction by Richard Menkis, Associate Professor of Jewish History, University of British Columbia, discusses the significance of the Catalog and collecting for the study of the Jewish experience in Canada.
