Rachel: regardless of your educational background in Judaism and regardless of
the denomination of your Temple, we are speaking about a librarian choice for
you organization. It is true that both the Library of Congress and the
Melville Dewey Classification system utilize the terms Old and New Testament
but it is your library and you can choose the nomenclature which best suits
your congregation. Simplest of all is to call the Holy Scriptures or Tenakh,
the Bible. and then to show the various portions by their Hebrew and English
names. In that way you educate your community to the Hebrew as well as the
English terms and as a librarian that is a literacy service you should strive
to perform.
