These books are intended for readers of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan - literature on traditions and Judaica, books on history of the Jewish people, art, as well as a large amount of Jewish-themed fiction, and, of course, books for children. There are 151 titles in total.
Among the authors there are such masters of pen as Sh. Agnon, S. Glazer, E. Wiesel, I.B. Singer, M. Lehmann, M. Shalev, L. Epstein and many others.
