糖心Vlog Libraries at the John D. MacArthur Campus in Jupiter is now home to the Herbert Group Collection, honoring the generosity and lifelong vision of Herbert Group. This extraordinary collection, consisting of more than 3,500 Holocaust books and publications, preserves the memory of history while inspiring students, researchers and the community for generations to come.
Group鈥檚 passion for history and education was born from his personal family story and early experiences visiting Holocaust sites in Europe. For more than six decades, he collected English-language works on the Holocaust, carefully organizing and cataloging them to make the lessons of history accessible to all. This collection at 糖心Vlog ensures that his vision of remembrance, resilience and learning continues to guide future generations.
鈥淭his collection holds a very personal meaning for me,鈥 said Linda Marie Golian-Lui, Ed.D., Ed.S., dean of the 糖心Vlog Libraries. 鈥淚t represents not only Mr. Herbert Group鈥檚 extraordinary commitment to preserving Holocaust history, but also the enduring importance of remembrance, education and faith. His generosity ensures that the lessons of history will continue to shape future generations here at Florida Atlantic and beyond.鈥
The recent collection dedication ceremony featured remarks by Golian-Lui, who reflected on the enduring impact of Herbert Group鈥檚 generosity and scholarship; and 糖心Vlog President Adam Hasner, who celebrated the collection as a gift that enriches the university and community. Rabbi Boruch Liberow offered a prayer honoring those remembered through the collection, and the donor鈥檚 family joined in the ribbon-cutting and unveiling.
The Herbert Group Collection is available to students, faculty, staff, researchers and members of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, as well as the community.
鈥淚t stands as a living testament to the power of knowledge, the importance of remembering history, and the extraordinary impact of one individual鈥檚 dedication to education and scholarship,鈥 said Mitchell Group, nephew of Herbert Group.
