SUPPORT FOR THE LEGACY HERITAGE FUND RABBINIC ENRICHMENT INITIATIVE HAS BEEN GENEROUSLY PROVIDED BY LEGACY HERITAGE FUND LIMITED.
The Rabbinic Research and Resource Center
The Rabbinic Research and Resource Center at Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, Yeshiva University, provides rabbis with support in all areas of their professional lives. These include accessing Jewish scholarship on contemporary matters (areas of Jewish law, thought and history, medical and legal ethics), resolving
challenging pastoral situations and halakhic issues, help in crafting speeches, assistance in contract negotiations, and more.
In response to an initial request, the director of the center refers the query to relevant resident-experts at Yeshiva University for their assistance and, when appropriate, researches it, gathers the pertinent information, and sends it to the rabbi.
We also copy or scan materials from Yeshiva University’s vast library of Judaic scholarship and fax them to rabbis across the world, giving them full access to Jewish sources in the original in preparation for their classes and their continued development as talmidei chachamim and Jewish scholars.
The program is a project of Yeshiva University’s Center for the Jewish Future. Rabbi Daniel Z. Feldman, renowned Talmud scholar, author and lecturer, is program director under the guidance of Rabbi Dr. Jacob J. Schacter, YU’s CJF Senior Scholar.

To facilitate the response to your request, please access the online query form at www.yu.edu/cjf/lhrei. This will enable Rabbi Feldman to help you as effectively as possible.
