Groups of women sit at tables during a Mount Sinai Auxiliary luncheon. The Auxiliary was both a fund-raising arm of Mt. Sinai Hospital and a leadership training ground for some of the women that spearheaded fundraising events. The Auxiliary's work pushed Jewish community visibility further into the general public awareness.

The Book Fair, like the Mount Sinai Ball, was a defining Auxiliary fundraiser. Hundreds of volunteers worked year-round on the sale. Books for the sale were donated by individuals, organizations and department stores. The sale itself was held at Southdale Mall in the public atrium.
