Dear Friends, After fifty-six years, the Association of Jewish Libraries has now established an endowment fund, a sure sign of the long-term success of our organization and the fulfillment of a longstanding dream of many of us. The AJL Endowment Fund, which began with an initial contribution from AJL’s reserve fund and additional gifts from several members, will allow people to bolster Judaic librarianship today, tomorrow, and well into the future.
It is our goal that the AJL Endowment Fund, with Merrill Lynch as our advisor, will disperse 5% each year to fund AJL’s efforts and activities—including our many book awards, scholarships for library students, and conference support for our members—basing the funds available for distribution on the income derived from the interest and dividends on the principal. That means gifts given today will not only benefit Judaic librarianship now but long into the future.

Thank you for your support. Sincerely, Kathy Bloomfield AJL President
