I can’t think of a more deserving mover and shaker of KIdilit. I add my gratitude to the Kar-Ben publishing. . It is so appropriate that the publishers of books that are on the shelves of so many synagogue, school or center libraries will support librarians who work with and advocate for the readers of those very books. Below please see the ctitera: • Active involvement in the Judaic library profession or related fields promoting Jewish children’s literacy • Strong advocacy for library/literacy services to children and youth • Positive role model to colleagues and the wider community • Innovative approaches to Jewish children’s literature or library services Heidi’s activities meet all the conditions listed above.

This scholarship, generously underwritten by KarBen Publishing, is presented to an AJL member who demonstrates dedication to Jewish children's literature and library services. Heidi's passion for Jewish kidlit and spreading the word far and wide using many different venues and formats impressed the Scholarship Committee. Please join me in congratulating Heidi on her winning this scholarship. We thank Joni Sussman and KarBen Publishing for their generosity in enabling our community to have extraordinary librarians like Heidi join us at our conferences. We are looking forward to seeing her – and all of you - at the AJL Conference in Evanston, IL in June.
