Mayer Simcha Leiter Judaic Collection & Research Area Home / Law Library / Research Guides / Leiter Collection
The Mayer S. Leiter Judaic Collection in the University of Miami Law Library
includes English language books, journals and other materials concerning Jewish
Law. The collection was inspired by Mayer S. Leiter, a 2002 graduate of the
University of Miami School of Law, who envisioned a collection that would enhance
his fellow students' study of law through application of Halakha (Jewish Law).
In his memory, friends and family of Mayer S. Leiter established the "Mayer S. Leiter
Judaic Collection and Research Area," which was dedicated in January 2005. The Law
Library has been able to expand its collection of materials on Jewish Law to include
many more sources such as the Mishna, Shulchan Aruch, the Talmud, and the Code of
Maimonides. The Collection also contains materials explaining the history and
principles of Jewish Law and supports comparative research and study between Jewish
Law and other legal systems and traditions.
