I totally agreed with Annette. It was a marvelous educational experience and great to meet the other participants. I had a good basic knowledge of the background of converso Jews, including reading years ago Cecil Roth’s book, A History of the Marranos— a pejorative term no longer used.

Our synagogue is going to get ten books on addiction issues published by the Jewish Addiction Awareness Network in Orange County, CA. We plan to get a set for reference use in our shul library and would like to have another set available for check out. Since addiction is a sensitive issue, is there a way to set up a check out so that others (library volunteers, etc) do not have to see who is checking out the books?

There's is especially a lot of materials for grades 3 and 4--literally hundreds of books. There are also some grade 1 flashcards, workbooks and big books. The school is in the process of moving and can neither store nor use much of the material. Michal would be happy to give them away but ask that postage be paid for.

[ha-Safran] Universal Jewish encyclopedia
I’m helping to go through my cousin’s storage Unit in Seattle and and found volumes 2-10 of this encyclopedia. Only volume 1 is missing. All look in good shape except for some smudges on the front cover and binding issues on volume 3. Since this encyclopedia talks about communities in Europe before the Holocaust, I though some library might be interested.

Re: [ha-Safran] speech on Jewish kidlit by Sydney Taylor honoree
Erika, Thanks so much for bringing this very important speech/article by Kathrine Locke to our attention. I almost skipped over it until I read Amalia's email in which she said that ithis article was important for all of us to read. There is a strong need for many diverse books for Jewish teens to read. It was also shocking to read about books by non-Jews about Jews that border on anti-Semitism and show an ignorance of Judaism in their content. About 30 years ago there was a thin volume of stories for Jewish young adults dealing with issues that diverse teens face. Unfortunately, I cannot remember its name. But since then, I have not seen anything similar. There were also books about Jews with diverse backgrounds, but few authors have continued in that vein. I'm heartened by the book with a collection of diverse short stories that Kathrine will help publish. My somewhat secular grandchildren have gotten a number of PJ Library books that focus on holidays and have too many on Hanukkah, for example. PJ Library in Hebrew has a lot of books on values that I hope will be translated into English.. A while ago, I started a Hasafran discussion on the lack of good biographies on Israelis, especially very little on women and non-Ashkenazis. The discussion continued for a while. I did contact a publisher of a number of Jewish books to see if they were interested in an idea that an Israeli friend and I brainstormed. I hope to hear back. It also was disheartening to see in print something I had figured out: that the topic "Holocaust" most interests publishers. It would be wonderful if a group of us could work together to come up with ideasof look at Israeli children's books and see if there is value in publishing them in English and seeing if a publisher might be interested.

Re: [ha-Safran] A book about famous Jews
Thanks Sherry. I appreciate all the suggestions so far but so far no one has hit on the one I am thinking about. It also includes famous Jews from other countries. I wrote the owner of the judaica store ( now closed) where I worked at the time and hope she remembers.

[ha-Safran] A book about famous Jews
About eight or nine years ago a book came out about famous Jews. The people were divided by topic, so there was a section on biologists, for example. It was a good book and I want to give it to my grandson fir his birthday but I cannot remember the title. It is not either of the books Great Jewish Men or Great Jewish Women as both sexes were included in the book and it had a much wider assortment of people. I am also looking for a book for upper elementary school about famous Israelis but gave not been successful in finding one. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Happy Thanksgiving!!

Re: [ha-Safran] PJ Library
As a grandparent, I have enjoyed many of the books. My main concern is a heavy and repetitive focus on the holidays. A lot of books get recycled back to us. Some books are written especially for the program. Since the original aim was to reach out to unaffiliated families, I can understand the focus on holidays. The program has focused on newborns to age 6 in the past but now has a new, additional focus for mid to upper elementary schoolers The Hebrew version used in Israel and with Israelis in the US focuses mostly on Jewish values and ethics. Some are from Israel and some are translations of books from English. I wish the English books had more of these. I found out that a Spanish version has recently begun in some Spanish speaking countries. Local sponsors help pay the costs.

[ha-Safran] Questions about Two Books
Hello, I was weeding through donations and found three books which I think may have some value to someone else. If they do, I'd like to place them where they will be used or valued. The first is Sefer Ha-agadah ספר האגדה מבחר האגדות שבתלמוד ומדרשים ע”י הרבניצי וה נ ביאליק קראקא, תרס”ט published in Cracow in 1908, I believe. The second and third are two tiny volumes of תלמוד בבלי, קדושין וסנהדרין בעיה”ק ירושלים תובב”א They are 6.5" tall by 4.75" wide, and the print is too small for my eyes to read, especially the commentary--Rashi I think. Both tiny books have not been used-- and the first book too is in excellent condition. Thanks for any help you can give me about them and where a good place might be to place them.

[ha-Safran] Betsy Teutsch's new book 100 Under $100
I want to share with you an amazing new book by Betsy Teutsch, possibly better known to many of you as a fantastic ketubah artist It contains 100 different solutions to reduce problems in extreme poverty areas. They empower women and each entry includes actionable items. It also has great photographs to help convey the message of each entry. Betsy is working on a Jewish link to the book with ties to Torah portions. My rabbi is going to use the book with B'nai Mitzvah youth as it has many great ideas for tzedakkah projects. For more information check out her book Facebook page Www.facebook.com/100under100 And her website w tons of resources at 100under100.org I have just spent an unbelievable nine days with her with Fair Trade Judaica and MayaWorks in Guatemala and was honored to go see one of the projects w her that was mentioned in the book!

[ha-Safran] Books in Spanish on Judaism.
I just had the honor to spend Shabbat with a small Reform congregation in Guatemala City called Adat Israel. It was a truly amazing experience. The group can especially use Spanish-Hebrew dictionaries and books in Spanish with a Reform or Conservative bent on Judaism. If anyone has any spare books like this or knows where to buy them, please let me know. The group has a Facebook page so you can learn about them there.

Re: [ha-Safran] Keep older encyclopedia?
That 1939 encyclopedia is quite special. It describes many European Jewish communities before the Holocaust that n longer exist today. I definitely recommend that you keep it. When I coordinated the Temple Beth Shalom library in Spokane, WA, the custodian found a copy of that encyclopedia. I looked through it and realized what a treasure it was.

[ha-Safran] A very good picture book on dealing with a grandparent who is dying
In case you have not heard of or read this book, I highly recommend that you read it. I got a copy from the Seattle Public Library. It is called*Zayde Comes to Live * and it is by Sheri Sinykin. The title had a second meaning to me after I read it. This 32-page children's picture book about a very ill grandfather who comes to live with the family of a young girl is truly a wonderful book. It deals with the subject of illness and death directly at the level of a 4 to 6-year-old and is quite poignant but also comforting. The child knows that zayde is dying but is afraid to say anything to her parents. She asks the rabbi when he visits as she knows rabbis never lie. __ Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) == Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: Hasafran@lists.service.ohio-state.edu To join Ha-Safran, update or change your subscription, etc. - click here: https://lists.service.ohio-state.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran Questions, problems, complaints, compliments send to: galro...@osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.service.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html Earlier Listserver: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org -- Hasafran mailing list Hasafran@lists.service.ohio-state.edu https://lists.service.ohio-state.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran
[ha-Safran] Clearer subject headings for a small shul library
Hello all, I had retired from being the volunteer coordinator of several Jewish libraries about seven years ago, but am back again in that roll as of a month ago so I just rejoined AJL after about a five year break. The library at my Conservative synagogue needs some updating in subject headings. We only have about 1000 books in the adult library and it has been used mostly for reference. The Weine catagory system is supposed to be available to members on the AJL website, but the link doesn't work, so it was suggested that I contact you all for help. Our library is in the beit midrash, so classes an daily minyanim are also held in it. In concept, it is a great idea, but since our synagogue is growing, space is at a premium. I am meeting with my Rabbi on Oct 16 to discuss the library and I have a wonderful board liason that I am working with too who is very interested in the library. The categories that we currently have that are problematical include: Spirituality, Ethics, Theology, Kabbalah, Musar, and Jewish Movements. I'd like help is seeing the Weine classification in this area or any suggestions that you all may have.
