Dear Safranim,

I received the message below from someone who wants to donate a large library to an appropriate institution. The Simon Wiesenthal Center is not in the position to accept, but I am forwarding this to the list with Dr. Loewy's permission in the hope that someone will want the books, or can help her find a home for them. Please respond directly to the sender.

Thank you,
Margo Gutstein

Subject: Request

To whom it may concern:

My husband, Dr. Professor Erich H. Loewy, MD, was a cardiologist/bioethicist interested in social justice issues in general. He left a large holocaust/genocide library--mainly in English and German--of over 3000 texts with hopes that they might be given to a university (preferably) or a relevant institution that would agree not to break it up and sell it off piecemeal. The university here is unable to agree to this stipulation, and I wish to communicate with someone at your institution in hopes that s/he may have some suggestions regarding this matter.

Thanking you in advance, I am,

Roberta Springer Loewy, PhD (Phil/Bioethics)
