Chaim Bermant Library
Jewish library formerly at the Jewish Community Centre, 222 Fenwick Road, Giffnock
Chaim Bermant Library was a Jewish library at the Jewish Community Centre, 222 Fenwick Road, Giffnock, Glasgow. It was named after the writer Chaim Bermant (1929–1998), who came to Glasgow as a child and studied at Glasgow University.[1] It is listed in the Jewish Year Book from 1997 to 2010, with Mrs D. Zolkwer as administrator in 1997 and 2002.[2][3][4] On 8 March 2004 UJIA held a book launch and sandwich supper with the author Lev Raphael "at Chaim Bermant Library, JCC".[5]
The Chaim Bermant Library was located for a time at the headquarters of the Scottish Zionist movement at 222 Fenwick Road, Giffnock, Glasgow, G46 6UE in what was called the Glasgow Jewish Community Centre.[5] Chaim Bermant was a Jewish immigrant to Glasgow when he was a child. After finishing primary school and attending secondary school and Glasgow University Bermant travelled South and became a well known author and writer.[1] The library appears to have been created by renaming the Jewish Resource Centre at the same address. It was listed as follows.
- 1997 - Admin Mrs D Zolkwer.[2]
- 2002 - 222 Fenwick Road. Admin Mrs D. Zolkwer.[3]
- 2004 - SCOJEC
- 2007 - 222 Fenwick Road.[6]
