[ha-Safran] Contact info for Encyclopedia Judaica?
Does anyone know if there's a way to contact the Encyclopedia Judaica editors to let them know of a citation error so it can be changed (at least in the online version), or is it naive to think it possible? They list an important Columbia manuscript with an incorrect citation, and I'd love for it to be corrected if possible. Thanks, Michelle -- Michelle Chesner Norman E.
