All you need to do to sign up is write your name in the Reader column for the aliyah you wish to read.

Here are some resources to help you prepare your reading:

  • A Conservative synagogue in Dallas has a site with the text of the tikkun page and audio of the Triennial Torah readings for every aliyah in the three-year cycle:
    https://www.shearith.org/torah-and-haftarah-readings.html
  • Please note that Adath always reads the Annual, not the Triennial Maftir, even in years one and two. To find the text and recording of the Annual Maftir visit the following website:

If you need further help preparing your reading, please let Rabbi Adler (rabbiadler@adathisraelnj.org) know. He would be happy to schedule a time to practice and work with the Torah in the sanctuary.
