[ha-Safran] I'm retiring!

2024-05-31 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I wanted to share the news with you that after 39 years, I've decided to
retire as the Librarian of Temple Israel, Boston,  on June 21, 2024.

(I know - some of you are thinking -- wait, didn't she retire already?
That's ok if you're thinking that -  you're not alone!  )

As you can imagine, this is a mixed decision for me, as I have loved my
job, and everything that came with it.   I have been very fortunate to have
had this fun, enriching,  purposeful career, and you were an important part
of why it was so fun, enriching and purposeful!  And, often, you made me
look very good when I needed help with a research request and you came to
the rescue!

And, it is time to move on.

And in response to the question I often get, "So, what are you going to do,
now?"

I've also been fortunate in that I've been teaching English to adult
immigrants and other English learners for six years, and will teach
full-time, starting in the fall.  I have loved this work - especially the
students -  and it's been a gift to learn a new skill at this time of
life.  So, although I'll greatly miss my work as a librarian, I feel lucky
to have a fairly soft landing as retirements go.

I want to say thank you to all of you for your many years of collegiality,
and wonderful times at conferences!   I have learned so much from you, and,
as a solo librarian like many of us are, I never felt alone with AJL in the
wings.

And, for anyone in the Boston area, if you're interested in coming to a
Friday night service on June 21 where I'll have the opportunity to thank
the congregation for this wonderful career, please let me know and I'll
send you the details.  (It will also be zoomed).

Wishing you all a Shabbat filled with Shalom,

Ann

We started doing this Tikkun during the pandemic, and it was so successful,

[ha-Safran] Journals

2024-05-09 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I"m cleaning up my library, and am wondering if I should take the time to
make a list of the journals I have and post them on the AJL site
for donating items, or just recycle them?

I have multiples copies of these  (NOT hundreds  -- maybe a few dozen,
total)

American Jewish Archives
CCAR Journal / The Reform Jewish Quarterly
Jewish Quarterly Review
Journal of contemporary antisemitism
Journal of Jewish Studies
Judaica Librarianship
Lilith

Thank you,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Help locating an article by Tamara Cohn Eskenazi

2024-03-12 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

One of our rabbis asked me for help accessing this article, but I don't
have access to where it's located.

If any of you are able to send it to me as a pdf, I would be very
appreciative:

An article by Tamara Cohn Eskenazi: "Song of Songs as an answer to Cline's
book on Job, in: J. Cheryl Exum and H.G.M. Williamson [eds.], in* Reading
from Right to Left*, T & T Clark, 2003.


Thank you very much, and I hope everyone is well.

Re: [ha-Safran] Nice Jewish Books Podcast

2024-01-18 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Wonderful, Sheryl!

I read and loved Don’s book.

Full disclosure: Don is an old friend of mine and I hosted him in December
(on zoom) “at” Temple Israel.  He has a background in storytelling, acting
and journalism and now works as an educator in Israel.  He’s a wonderful
presenter.

I encourage everyone to listen to Sheryl’s podcast and to read Don’s book.
(And get it for your library!  It is VERY appropriate for Judaica
libraries, especially those in the American Jewish community.  )

Hoping everyone is safe and well,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Fwd: Zichrono livracha Norman H. Finkelstein

2024-01-08 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I'm sad to share that I recently learned that Norman, aka Norm Finkelstein,
died on January 5.

Here is the obituary from Levine Chapels in Brookline, MA, where his
funeral will be tomorrow, and includes a live-stream link.

https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/brookline-ma/norman-finkelstein-11614365__;!!KGKeukY!zYlkd5NdKmAWxWQX5KFmZMdoy-ZboB0FxjyOvGkCYfKgQWli4h4GORGL_Db6qXG9sX7ZxEDim2naqPE9rpuIMK0PS5Coqape$
 


Although I haven't been in touch with Norm for many years, I have many fond
memories of him.

In the late 1980's, when I was looking around the Boston area for people to
help me figure out what kind of software product to purchase to automate my
library's collection, Norm graciously invited me to his school library, and
demonstrated the program he was using.  (I ended up choosing that product,
and was, and still am, very happy with it.)

In 2006, when the New England Chapter of AJL (NEAJL) hosted AJL's annual
conference in Cambridge,  Norm was on the planning committee and it was an
honor and a pleasure to work with him.


And of course, many of us know that Norm authored 23 wonderful books,
mostly for young readers, and many on Jewish topics.   One of my favorites
that is particularly significant this week is *Heeding the call: Jewish
Voices in America's Civil Rights Struggle. *


But, first and foremost, what I remember about Norm is that he embodied the
meaning of "mensch."  I will always remember his warm smile and generous
spirit.

Zichrono livracha.



Hoping you and your loved ones are well,

Ann

[ha-Safran] To Safranim in the Boston area

2023-08-31 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear Boston safranim,

I hope your summer's going well.

Our synagogue asked for my assistance with finding a book-repair company
that could repair the broken/torn bindings of many of our prayer books.

If you know of any companies that you'd recommend, please send them my way.

Thank you,

Ann

[ha-Safran] AJL and Intellectual Freedom/ Freedom to read / Banned books

Dear safranim,

An adult education teacher in my congregation asked me if the AJL has
issued statements and/or created resource lists on the topics of
iIntellectual Freedom/ Freedom to read / Banned books, especially in light
of recent events.   She's looking for resources on these topics, especially
from a Jewish perspective,  for an adult education program.

Thank you, and I hope you and your loved ones are well,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Galia's Wedding, by A.B. Yehoshua

2022-05-10 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

Does anyone know of any literary criticism articles and /  or books that
say more than one short sentence about A. B. Yehoshua's story, Galia's
Wedding?  Ideally in English, but in Hebrew would be good, too.

Thank you and hope you and your loved ones are well,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Boston area safranim - request for a book appraiser of damaged books

2022-03-01 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
I got a call from a friend of a friend who lives in Brighton, MA, and had
about 100 books-- many were chumashim and siddurim -- in a storage unit
that was flooded, and he needs to evaluate their worth.  Most were quite
badly damaged by the flood.

Does anyone know anyone in the Boston area who does this?

Thank you,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Jewish music cds

2022-02-07 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I'm wondering what you're all doing with your Jewish music recordings, on
CD?  In our community, they are not being used anymore, but I'd like to not
add to the landfill.

Suggestions?  And, if any of you want them, please email me separately.   I
have many American Jewish music recordings, plus many Israeli music
recordings, in Hebrew only.  I can take pix and send them, on request.
They're all in good or very good condition.

Hope you're all well,

Ann

Re: [ha-Safran] Dr. Maurice Tuchman (1936-2022)

2022-01-04 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
I was very fortunate to work with Murray as a library assistant at Hebrew
College, before I went to library school.Murray was the kind of
supervisor and mentor everyone should have:   He was kind, patient, and
funny as well as highly intelligent,  and knowledgeable re: the Judaica
Library world, and beyond.

After becoming a librarian, it was my privilege to be colleagues with
Murray in the New England Chapter of AJL, which he initiated.

Zichrono livracha - May his memory be a blessing.

[ha-Safran] History of Israel books for Middle School student

2021-12-07 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

Can anyone recommend books for a middle school student that have been
published recently about the history of Israel?

I see that Homeland: An Illustrated History of the State of Israel was a
Sydney Taylor winner in 2007, and that may be a good fit for this student
as he reads above his level.  I'm looking for  more recent books, as well.

Thank you, and hope you and your loved ones are well.

Ann

[ha-Safran] The Rabbi Who Prayed with Fire by Rachel Sharona Lewis: your book clubs' next read for 5782!

2021-08-09 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
I want to chime in, as I recently greatly enjoyed The Rabbi Who Prayed with
Fire, and we were fortunate to have author, Rachie Lewis, speak at a Temple
Israel zoom gathering.   Rachie is a wonderful presenter, and I highly
recommend inviting her to your book group or any gathering relating to
Jewish literature and/or the topics of LGBTQ Jews, diversity and/or racial
justice.

Hope everyone is well and hanging in there,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Jerusalem Posts from November, 1977

2021-06-24 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

A woman called me from my area,  who is moving and has, in her words:

"sections of the Jerusalem Post, from November 1977, showing pictures of
Sadat in Jerusalem."

She would be happy to mail them to anyone who would like them.  She said
they're in good condition -- the paper is just a bit yellowed.

If you'd like them,  please let me know.

Thank you,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Gently used PJ Library books

2021-06-07 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I'm guessing we're all getting this question:
"Would you like our used PJ library books?"

We have accepted some, but don't have the need/capacity to continue to
accept, indefinitely.

Are there libraries who could use them?

Thank you, and hope you and your families are well and hanging in there,

[ha-Safran] We Share the Same Sky: Author Rachael Cerrotti, this Tuesday, at 12:00 U.S. EST.

2021-04-25 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I think the event, or the topic of the event may interest you!

(I apologize for the late notice about this.)

Lunch with the Librarian presents:   A Conversation with Rachael Cerrotti,
author of  We Share the Same Sky: A Memoir of Memory and Migration (will be
published in August).
April 27,  12:00 - 1:00 p.m.  U.S.  EST.
RSVP to me by April 2 6   and I'll  send you the Zoom
link.
Rachael is an award-winning photojournalist, writer, educator and
producer.  Her podcast, *We Share the Same Sky,*  was listed as one of
Huffington
Post’s Best Podcasts of 2019
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.huffpost.com/entry/best-podcasts-2019_n_5df401b1e4b047e8889d34bb__;!!KGKeukY!hyNSr0wkCrMHQ7eH2WPWwj2hQalQzao9qx6Bg9tZZhdP8YtZ5RF9cMl2Fhd8GP34e2o$
 >
Her book is on the same topic as her podcast: about the journeys of her
beloved grandmother, Hana, a Holocaust survivor, as she was hidden by Good
Samaritans in several places in Europe.   Rachael retraced her
grandmother's journeys - literally- and reflects on her experiences.

Her work explores the intergenerational impact of migration and memory. Listen
to her podcast here
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001PLjtOVbgyfjAmXrLR0YD8XfzcW_AaJlBN4Lta5SCONg5Sb_lbmYExex2p_tPqS3W7SXiSp2pKPXb7QtxpGLIv6MoKVfqB1-gnqnmRMlkipPKVFYMFDKmaHkpx7DvGyP3TuoCjhGSLuStkJL_F7htU1aUOUurCnBpNIXiki3tJsw==oEFLtBeZLJpY9rcWyaQS0l7_srGczmDK3nLTu9VLdYk5UecTi03VMQ===MIFg54ppL-CPwJaXNIbKmr9c9lI01FLLWFvIptsXjGo7_iMsiVD9FQ==__;!!KGKeukY!hyNSr0wkCrMHQ7eH2WPWwj2hQalQzao9qx6Bg9tZZhdP8YtZ5RF9cMl2Fhd8cVWmc0Y$

you it will be well worth your time.  And,  please support
local/independent book vendors if you buy her book.

[ha-Safran] Sephardic short stories

2021-02-01 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I need your help, please,

A temple book group wants to focus on Sephardic short stories.

This, unfortunately, is a genre I am not very familiar with, and so I'd
greatly appreciate your suggestions.

I have the wonderful collections, Folktales of the Jews, Volume 1: Tales
from the Sephardic Dispersion  and

The Schocken Book of Modern Sephardic LIterature

as resources, but I'm not sure where to start.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Hope you and your loved ones are well,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Events that may interest you "at" Temple Israel Boston, this month

2021-01-24 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear friends,

I hope you and your loved ones are well.

I wanted to let you know about two upcoming events that I thought might
interest some of you, and that I was involved with planning.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 27, AT 7:30
*"And God Said..." A Poetry Reading & Discussion*
Join us on Zoom for a poetry reading and discussion with poets Barbara Leff
and Ann Bookman.

Born and raised in New York, Barbara Leff discovered poetry at the age of
12 and has explored the genre ever since. Co-founder of the Caselli Street
Poets, her work has appeared in numerous journals including Faultline,
Fourteen Hills and Ibbetson Street. Her first book, And God Said. . . , was
published in 2011 by Broadstone Books. Her second book, Luck, which
appeared in 2019 explores various narrative forms including ones she
invented. She is at work on a third book, a collection of her lifetime
work. She lives in San Francisco with her wife, Arlene Singer, and their
brood of four-legged furry ones.

Ann Bookman’s poetry has been published in The Larcom Review, Chronogram: A
Journal of Arts, Culture and Spirit, The Virtual Wall, an online creative
writing site run in memory of the veterans of the Vietnam War, among
others. Point of Attachment, her first chapbook, was published by Finishing
Line Press in 2012. A social anthropologist by training, Ann Bookman, a
leading researcher and social policy expert on women’s issues, work-family
balance and community engagement, served as the director of the Center for
Women in Politics and Public Policy at the McCormack Graduate School of
Policy and Global Studies until 2018.She’s now an affiliated faculty member
of the McCormack Graduate School. And, she is a long-time member of Temple
Israel!

Barbara's  book may be purchased from her publisher or other vendors:

Barbara Leff  will read from her poetry, and Ann Bookman will lead the
discussion.

Left on Pearl: Film Screening & Discussion with Executive Producer and
Temple Israel Member,  Rochelle Ruthchild
Sunday, January 31 at 2:00 p.m.

Left of Pearl is a documentary about a highly significant but little-known
event in the history of the women’s liberation movement, the 1971 takeover
and occupation of a Harvard University-owned building by hundreds of Boston
area women. The ten-day occupation of 888 Memorial Drive by women demanding
a Women’s Center and low income housing for the community in which the
building stood, embodied within it many of the hopes, triumphs, conflicts
and tensions of Second Wave feminism. Join us for a virtual screening of
the film, followed by a conversation with Executive Producer and Temple
Israel member Rochelle Ruthchild, Producer/Director, Susan Rivo, and others
involved with the making of the film.

*The event is free, but REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED VIA THIS LINK*

*https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYpfuqqqT0iE9PtR6Z2rtUBbyCaVdopvp3P*20__;JQ!!KGKeukY!n-DUr6VKL4fFAPvoTOMscJwVSvk7oD4-KmDS9ngBwdMZ_9uVc00X9vtk4Wi1IGnny6M$
 
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYpfuqqqT0iE9PtR6Z2rtUBbyCaVdopvp3P*20__;JQ!!KGKeukY!n-DUr6VKL4fFAPvoTOMscJwVSvk7oD4-KmDS9ngBwdMZ_9uVc00X9vtk4Wi1IGnny6M$
 >*

Although the film is not on an explicitly Jewish topic, there were many
Jewish women involved with this event, and many continued to be involved
with community and social justice activism, in the Jewish community and
beyond.

And, for Boston area folks, this may be of particular interest, as we know
exactly where this building was, and many of us are familiar with the
Women's Center of Cambridge, which emerged from this action, and is still
helping hundreds of women.

Safranim, I ask, please, that you do not post these links on social media.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Hope you can come!

[ha-Safran] Computer mezuzah?

2020-12-08 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I got an inquiry about whether there is such a thing as a computer mezuzah,
as a way for those working from home to make a work space sacred.

I've googled with no success.

I welcome your input.


Thank you, and hope you and your loved ones are well,

Ann

2020-09-17 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Hi, everyone,

Our education program is running virtually, and I've been asked to compile
a list of Jewish kids' books  available as e-books.

I've poked around epic - https://www.getepic.com ,   Kindle and Google
Play, and yes, there are many titles, there, but is there something I don't
know about?

Thanks, everyone, stay well and

Shanah tovah,

[ha-Safran] Blessing before reading Eicha

2020-08-18 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

I hope you and your loved ones are well.

Does anyone know the blessing that is supposed to be said before reading
Eicha?  And if yes, do you also know its source?

Thank you,

Ann

"When you go out and see the empty streets, the empty stadiums, the empty
train platforms, don’t say to yourself, 'It looks like the end of the
world.' What you’re seeing is love in action. What you’re seeing, in that
negative space, is how much we do care for each other, for our
grandparents, for our immune-compromised brothers and sisters, for people
we will never meet. People will lose jobs over this. Some will lose their
businesses. And some will lose their lives. All the more reason to take a
moment, when you’re out on your walk, or on your way to the store, or just
watching the news, to look into the emptiness and marvel at all of that
love. Let it fill you and sustain you. It isn’t the end of the world. It is
the most remarkable act of global solidarity we may ever witness."

[ha-Safran] Pivoting librarians

2020-05-10 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

First, I hope you and your loved ones are well.

I thought this might interest the synagogue librarians in particular, but
also anyone who has children in their lives.

FYI:
I've recorded myself reading several children's books that are of
particular interest to the Temple Israel, Boston, community where I work,
but also for anyone who needs a little entertainment/education for their
students/kids.  I've also been reading these, and other books, on request,
in our synagogue's zoom religious school classrooms.

I've checked with a lawyer and this is considered "fair use," as it's for
educational purposes and no one is making $ from it.

Take good care,

[ha-Safran] Seeking article about Jews in 19th century Italy

2020-03-31 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

Hoping you're all ok.

I"m helping a rabbi try to find this article, which I see was also
published as a book.  So, book sellers, if you have it, please let me
know:I don't see it in JSTOR.


*The Jews in nineteenth-century Italy : towards a reappraisal.*

[ha-Safran] New England AJL

2020-02-19 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear AJL members in Maine, Massachusetts,  New Hampshire, Rhode Island,
Vermont (CT- you have your own chapter, yes?),

I feel badly that I haven't  organized any chapter meetings in quite a
while.  Yes, there was the wonderful 2018 convention here in Boston, under
the wonderful leadership of Jim and Harvey and their committee, but I mean,
outside of that.

I'm afraid I no longer have the time to organize chapter events.  I'm
wondering if there's someone/s out there who'd like to take the baton?
 If yes, please reply just to me, and we'll chat!   You will not be
anointed President for Life if you simply reply to this email!  :)

Looking forward to hearing from those who may be interested in keeping our
wonderful chapter going.

Re: [ha-Safran] Jewish in Japan today

2019-12-31 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Also, FYI, this may be of interest to the person moving to Japan:

There is a Christian choir in Japan,  called Makhelat Hashachar, aka the
Shinonome Choir (The Dawn choir), that sings Jewish songs to celebrate
Judaism,  They came to Temple Israel, Boston, twice, in the 1980's, because
our rabbi at the time had met them when he lived in Japan.

[ha-Safran] VHS videos to give away - LIST available!

2019-12-23 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

At the instruction of my library committee, my staff and I compiled a list
of the VHS videos we had, and which were available in other formats, and
which were not.  The list, below, is a list of those that are NOT available
in any other format or  stream service.

I think they would have more value if they were housed at an academic or
special library/archive, rather than in storage at a synagogue library.
And, I'm aware that all of us have had to deal with disposing of out-dated
formatted resources.

But, IF  your institution can use any of these, please reply just to me,
with an alphabetized list, by title, of what you'd like, and I'll send them
when time permits.  If you're able to reimburse Temple Israel for shipping,
that would be helpful.   No phone calls, please.

[ha-Safran] Recommendation for books for a 6th grader about the Holocaust

2019-12-09 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Dear safranim,

A congregant asked me for help, re: buying her granddaughter a novel,
relating to the Holocaust.  The child is in 6th grade and has read Number
the Stars and The Book Thief, and liked them very much.Her grandmother
says the child is VERY interested in learning about the Holocaust.  There
does not seem to be a family connection, i.e. a survivor in the family, and
the grandmother doesn't know of any context, such as a class, that's
introducing her to the topic and books. I'd be grateful for any suggestions
folks can send my way.

 Thank you,

[ha-Safran] Death on Yom Kippur

Dear safranim who may be online, today,

A congregant just shared with me that her grandmother in Israel died,
today, and said that her mother told her that if someone dies on Yom Kippur
they're considered a tzadik/a, and she asked me if I knew anything about
this, or if there was a book/article to confirm this info.  I have not
found anything, and am wondering if any of you may know?

Thank you,

Shanah tovah, and gmar chatimah tovah!

Re: [ha-Safran] New haggadah for families with young kids

2019-02-25 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Thanks so much, Claire!

If other safranim have recommendations of haggadot, particularly those
published in the last five years,  I would be appreciative if you'd let me
(and maybe all of hasafran?) know, as I'm curating a recommended list for
my congregation.

BTW, I recently heard a term that maybe some of us would enjoy using:
Book Concierge.

I'm looking to buy 10 gently used copies of Ina's book.  I see that I can

Anyone have 10 by any chance?   Please reply just to me.

[ha-Safran] Cool Jewish apps

2018-10-04 Thread Ann Abrams via Hasafran
Thank you to all who sent me suggestions!


And, since I was asked by many to share what was sent to me, here you go:



ובלכתך בדרך
ך which for those who are interested is a free compendium of everything
they could want -- in Hebrew.  It has English as an option



Sefaria



Hebrew on Duolingo



Kosher GPS,

 (Didn't know what it was called): An app that is a timer you can set from
the time you finish eating something fleishig.  It counts down and rings
when you can eat dairy


 “Wake Up World” and it’s free, teaching about Jewish holidays, and the fun
part is where you get to use your phone microphone to sound like a shofar
by blowing into it and it is quite fun. It is very easy to figure out how
to “blow the shofar”! (although you do need to practice…)

Dear safranim,

I'm teaching a one-session class, for older adults, called "Appy Hour,"
where I'll present a few apps that may be of interest, and folks will share
theirs  (not necessarily ones related to Jewish topics) .

I"m wondering if anyone has come across a particularly cool Jewish app?
If yes, I'd be grateful if you'd let me know about it by this Sunday - (the
class is on Tuesday).

Thanks, as always!

[ha-Safran] Teaching conversational Hebrew to an adult

2018-09-17 Thread Ann Abrams
Dear safranim,

I'm looking for books and online resources for an American teacher who will
be teaching another American adult conversational Hebrew.   The teacher is
fluent, and has many years of teaching experience, but not recently; the
student can read, slowly, and is more of a visual learner than audio.   All
suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, and

Shanah Tovah/G'mar Chatimah Tovah to everyone,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Back to work! Time sensitive journal article needed, please

2018-06-21 Thread Ann Abrams
A former Temple Israel teacher, who's now a rabbi in NY, called me in the
thick of the conference,  looking for this article, below. Her brother
recently died, and she'd like to reference it for her eulogy in a few days.

I don't have access to the journal, online, and I can't find it on JSTOR.
I'm wondering if someone would be willing to find it, online, and send it
to me, as a pdf?

Mehlman, Bernard H. (1980), "Midrash Petirat Aharon", *Journal of Reform
Judaism*, *27*: 49–58.

(And, yes, I know that Rabbi Bernard Mehlman is our rabbi emeritus but I
don't have his articles going back that far!  :) )



Best,

Ann

Dear ,

It is hard to know what to say as we read in horror the reports of children
being separated from their asylum-seeking parents at the U.S. border. I
often struggle with how much information I feel capable of taking in and
the need to know what is happening. But I cannot look away. We cannot. We
must witness this atrocity and respond. Even when it seems hopeless or
ineffectual, our words matter. We must speak out in any way we can and in
any forum to anyone who will listen––which is how I think about prayer. I
don't know who or what is listening on the other end, but I must speak, I
must cry out. That's why I'm grateful that so many new prayers have found a
home at Ritualwell giving voice to the agony and moral outrage that so many
of us feel. We welcome you to submit
<https://rrc.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e8dc2f2d9405f4a028431548a=a704de4810=078278b255>and
add your voice. And, most importantly, we encourage you to use prayer as a
way to strengthen yourself toward action. Whatever you are able to do, in
whatever capacity, is necessary.

*L'Shalom,*

[ha-Safran] Conference at Temple Israel: WIFI Access, laptops and printers

2018-06-17 Thread Ann Abrams
In response to inquiries I've gotten:

When you're anywhere in the building, or outside within a few hundred feet,
"TI GUEST" will pop up.  That is the wifi connection to use.  No password
is needed.

The library has two public access laptops that you may use at any time.
They are in the two cubbies that you'll see when  you walk in.   There is a
black and white and color printer in the library that is  accessible with
any device.   I have a black and white printer next to my desk, so, worst
case scenario you can email me things in need of being printed and I can
print them from my desk.

Feel free to email me with any questions.

Ann

[ha-Safran] To folks coming to Boston!

2018-06-14 Thread Ann Abrams
Hi, Safranim coming to Boston,

I want to clarify what can be confusing the first time you come to Temple
Israel:

Our mailing address IS  477 Longwood Ave. Boston, MA 02215. One side of the
building is on Longwood Ave and the number “477” is on a side door. But
this side door is NOT the entrance.

The entrance to the temple is on Nessel Way, a small side street off of
Longwood Ave.  As soon as you turn onto Nessel, you’ll see the entrance on
your left.

So, when you read the directions from the hotel in the program book
(copied, below) and see “Take the left side street,” that side street is
Nessel Way.  If you drive in your own car (which I don't encourage), it’s
ok to drop passengers off on Nessel Way, but please do not park there. The
MASCO Garage is next to the temple, and you may park there but it’s not
cheap, and AJL and the temple can’t validate your ticket:

Here are the rates:
https://www.masco.org/directions/375-longwood-garage.

It is very difficult to find on-street parking in that area, so I encourage
you to leave your car at the hotel if you don’t absolutely need it. It will
be cheaper, and more importantly,  less of a hassle to take a
taxi/Uber/Lyft round trip than drive and pay for several hours of parking.
And, if you’re up for walking, it’s a .6 of a mile walk- it’s actually
faster to walk then taking the train because there’s no direct train route.



*DIRECTIONS FROM THE HOTEL VIA TRAIN (from the program book)*
Board the train across the street from the hotel (known as the Green Line C
Train (or the Cleveland Circle Line) , travel inbound to Kenmore Square.
Switch to the outbound Green Line  D Train (known as the Riverside Line).
Take the train  two stops to Longwood station, walk up the small incline
and turn left. You will be on Longwood Ave. Cross the Riverway. The Temple
will be on your left. Continue a short distance on Longwood Ave*. Take the
first left side street. The entrance to the temple is there.*


*WALKING*

The Holiday Inn is on the corner of Beacon Street and St.Paul Street.  The
easiest directions are:

Cross Beacon and go straight up St.Paul Street.  Walk a few blocks and make
a left onto Longwood Ave.  Stay on the left side of Longwood, and walk
several blocks till you get to a major intersection, of Longwood and The
Riverway.   You’ll see the temple in front of you.  Cross The Riverway,
continue on Longwood one block and make a left on Nessel Way. Entrance is
on your left.


Please feel free to contact me with any Temple Israel or Boston questions.

[ha-Safran] Seeking Lithuanian translator

2018-06-11 Thread Ann Abrams
Dear safranim

A Temple Israel member I'm friendly with is looking for someone to
translate some personal letters sent by a family member to her mother.  The
temple member's mother recently died, so this would be a mitzvah to help
her out.  She is willing to pay someone for their time.

Here are details from the person seeking help:

 I have about 3 handwritten letters and a few pages of a household log.
However, I’d be pleased to just address one particular letter, if that
would be easiest.  I could fax it or photocopy it and it is about 3 pages
in length.   All pieces are handwritten.


Any leads would be appreciated and I would be happy to pay someone for
their time.  Also happy to meet somewhere in person.


FROM ANN:

If you're able/interested in helping, please reply just to me and I'll send
you her contact info.

Thank you,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Rabbi Leo Baeck research question

2018-04-26 Thread Ann Abrams
Dear safranim,

I'm helping one of our rabbis who's doing research on Leo Baeck.

Here's the background:

In 1945, Leo Baeck was liberated from Therezienstatd.   He was in Paris and
London in
 July 1945.

In the spring of 1946, he was asked to give three talks, in German, on BBC
radio, from the British sector of divided post-war Germany.

  The first one was called Der Sinn der Geschichte - The meaning of History.

The rabbi has the information about the first one, but has not been able to
find out the names/dates of the other two talks. It would be fantastic if
we could also find a transcript and/or audio-recording of all three of
these talks, but he would be very happy just to get the titles and dates of
the second and third.

Thank you for any guidance/assistance you can offer to help me help him.

Todah!

Ann

Dear safranim who have used-book business,  or librarians looking to sell
this book:

I'm helping our school locate 20 copies of


The Ultimate Jewish Teacher’s Handbook, edited by Nachama Skolnik
Moskowitz.


 I've already scouted out our local Jewish bookstore, amazon, Biblio and
Bookfinder.  Their prices are high for our budget.


Please let me know if you have these to sell, for how much.  We need them
by Friday, May 18.


Thank you,

[ha-Safran] Thank you / Convention!

2018-02-15 Thread Ann Abrams
 Dear colleagues,

 I want to thank you for your expressions of condolence on the recent death
of my brother.

I don't usually share personal information on hasafran, as I see it, as we
all do, as a professional listserve.  The reason I did so, in this case,
was an indirect way of explaining why you haven't seen my name connected
with the upcoming conference that will be held, as many of you know,  at
the synagogue where I work, Temple Israel. My brother was sick for many
months, and I was very involved with his care, and so could not participate
in the planning committee.

Now that Sheloshim is over, I want to take the opportunity to tell you how
delighted I am that the conference is being held at Temple Israel, and I,
along with the clergy, staff and congregation, look forward to welcoming
you all.

Please do not hesitate to contact me, directly, if you have any questions
specifically related to Boston and/or the temple.

Looking forward to seeing you in June,

Ann

[ha-Safran] Not great news re: my job

2017-05-26 Thread Ann Abrams
Hi, Hasafran,

I'm sorry to report that my full-time position is being cut by 25% for
budgetary reasons beginning July 1.

I'm writing to let you know, because you are my colleagues;  and because
I'm looking for "gigs," asap, local or not (that I could do remotely) to
make up the 25%.  Please contact me off-line if you have any suggestions.

Unfortunately, I won't be at the NY conference, for personal reasons.  Will
miss you!

Wishing you and your loved ones a Shabbat filled with Shalom,

Ann

As you know, we usually have a meeting of our chapter in May or June.
Unfortunately, I don't have the bandwidth, as they say, to plan and run a

know and I'll be happy to send you the contact list of folks who usually
come, or have shown interest in participating, some of whom are not on

[ha-Safran] Anna Ornstein's My Mothers Eyes

Dear safranim,

Our school would like to buy 100 copies of Anna's book,and I'm helping.
The publisher went out of business, years ago, and the Distributor, PW,
that took their inventory, does not list it.   So far, I've struck out at
other places, too, so am wondering if any of you by any chance:

1) Have 100 copies you'd like to sell us?

2) Have information I don't have about this book's availability?


Thanks very much!
