[ha-Safran] Contact at Serials Solutions for error in author entry?

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Hi all,

A Columbia professor who recently published a book reached out to me
because the e-book 
 record
shows her with the wrong authority, linking her as a different author. She
reached out to her press, and they have not been helpful, and so she's not
sure what to do.  Has anyone had success in getting vendor e-book records
corrected, or know of someone at Serials Solutions who might be able to
help? This is something we see all the time, unfortunately...

Thanks,
Michelle

Re: [ha-Safran] AJL's Spring 2022 Author Showcase (5/15)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Apologies for any confusion - I responded directly to Diane, not Hasafran -
I've copied that below. Note that the showcase has been postponed, not
canceled.

My best,
Michelle

Hi! Thanks for checking in. The author showcase unfortunately had to be
postponed, but we're hoping to have it after the conference. We still have
openings if any authors missed it the first time around!

Our up-to-date event schedule is listed on the AJL website:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishlibraries.org/events-calendar/__;!!KGKeukY!3N8r0QKO_TNCNWRhr9nLzY0tdClpW24gZmA7R2TLtbgBOXOyy8x3dHofHIzGn3j2Qd4hcIdLKlQ52DdMKWKmJ74q5WVEYlS2$
 

Sorry about any confusion this may have caused.

Please be in touch if you're interested!

My best,

[ha-Safran] Hasafran guidelines

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear colleagues,

For decades, Hasafran has been a place where librarians could learn more
about the myriad aspects of Judaica librarianship, network, and help one
another. There is sometimes confusion as to what is appropriate on
Hasafran, and we now have clear guidelines for the list posted below and on
the AJL website 
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishlibraries.org/hasafran-listserv/__;!!KGKeukY!gISfN4qGhrEnVM2_Q1Fm5bkNLuZco1OTsgDqdejIOGFRlKIHYzI5fMmIaGbbaY3NPOU$
 )

Hasafran is a professional listserv for librarians and others to discuss
Jewish books, Judaica librarianship, and related topics. Due to the volume
of emails coming through the list, we endeavor to keep it on topic and will
not post messages that do not relate to the mission
of AJL and its members.

Hate speech of any kind will not be tolerated and is grounds for immediate
revocation of listserv privileges. This includes any derogatory speech
based on race, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, or other
identity or belief. Personal attacks on specific individuals are never
acceptable.

Courtesy: Please be courteous in all communications. This includes
mindfulness of whether your post contributes to an ongoing conversation;
whether it should be “reply all” or reply only to the original poster.

Paid Advertisements: Advertisements may be posted to Hasafran for a fee.
For questions about the advertisement policy, please contact Jackie
Ben-Efraim at ajladmana...@gmail.com

Repeat offenders of this policy will be removed from the list without
warning.

With best wishes for a wonderful Passover to all who celebrate!

Vice President/ President-Elect

[ha-Safran] Role Model Contest (Moment Magazine)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Of possible interest to school and synagogue librarians who work with high
schoolers, from our partners at Moment Magazine:

*Moment Magazine** is excited to announce that as part of **The Role Model
Project* 
* in memory of Ruth
Bader Ginsburg, we have launched an **essay contest* *for high school
students. Students should select one of the women from the book **RBG’S
Brave and Brilliant Women*
*
and
write a short essay (450-600 words) about **why the woman selected inspires
them**. **More information about the contest can be found on our *website
*.  **Please
encourage all high school students to submit an essay.*


Moment *is an independent magazine that since its founding 45 years ago by
Elie Wiesel and Leonard Fein has provided a unique lens on the issues that
concern and inspire American Jews. The Role Model Project, inspired by the
late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, encompasses role models past and present
from all genders, fields, and backgrounds. Its intent is to plant seeds of
inspiration for youth at a pivotal moment in their growth as they begin to
consider their future.*

Re: [ha-Safran] Association of Jewish Libraries Statement on Ukraine

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Colleagues, if you know about *verified* ways to help, please add to this
thread.

I'll start with a library/DH initiative to preserve digital archives (
sucho.org), of which a significant percentage on the current list have some
Jewish aspect.

Please especially share verified channels you've seen to help the people -
lives are obviously the most important here.

Michelle

Re: [ha-Safran] Personal libraries

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

I think it would be easy enough to start it with something like a Google
Form leading to a Sheet - but someone would certainly have to be
responsible for maintaining it and providing the information when requested
(I'm not sure that people are always comfortable with collecting priorities
- or contact information - publicly available).

If anyone would be willing to take on the responsibility of setting this up
and maintaining it, please let me know!

My best,
Michelle

Re: [ha-Safran] Personal libraries

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

We have spoken a bit about having a "marketplace" for collections, where
librarians can state what subjects they are looking for, and potential
donors can find the right libraries for their collections. It's hard to do
it in practice, but I'd love to hear any ideas about how to make it happen
- and especially how to help the smaller collections looking to grow!

My best,
Michelle

Re: [ha-Safran] Michelle Chesner library support

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Hi Ilka,

It's a good question. In my view, a bet midrash is a space where there are
books meant to be used in the space - which is different than a library
(with someone actively curating a collection which can also be lent out to
users). But I certainly am open to other thoughts!  In this case, I was
specifically looking for synagogue librarians in Orthodox libraries.

Thanks,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] Synagogue library in an orthodox shul?

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Colleagues,

Someone asked me if I knew of any orthodox synagogues with a library that
could use some support. I know that many synagogues have bate midrash in
various capacities, but I don't know of any with a librarian (I know some
yeshivot and day schools have, but this particular question was about
synagogues).

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Michelle

[ha-Safran] AJS session on librarianship - tomorrow!

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Colleagues,

I know many people who were planning to come to the AJS had to cancel their
plans at the last minute, but if you did end up coming, please join us at
the AJL-sponsored roundtable on Judaica Librarianship: we will be
discussing what academic librarians do (ie why researchers should get to
know theirs) as well as librarianship as a possible career.

We'll be meeting tomorrow, 12/20, at 5:45 in the Erie Room on the 2nd Floor.

My best,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] AJL 2022 IN PERSON call for proposals!

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear all,

With great pleasure, we announce our call for proposals for the 2022 AJL
conference, to be held, safety permitting, in Philadelphia between June
26-29 2022.

 Librarians, scholars, educators, archivists, authors, and library
advocates are invited to submit proposals for papers and presentations on
all aspects of librarianship and on topics related to Jews, Judaism, the
Jewish experience, or Israel. Presentations should be relevant to library
professionals working in academic and research institutions, archives,
synagogues, day schools, or Jewish community centers as well as public
schools or libraries serving Jewish communities. Past topics have included
collection development and management, programming, reader advisory
services, special and rare collections, archival science, cataloging and
classification, Jewish literature and literacy, digital and electronic
resources, and emerging technologies.

As we will be meeting in Philadelphia, the "City of Brotherly Love," after
so many months of virtual meetings, our motto for 2022 will be "Together
again." This year we especially encourage submissions that highlight ways
that Judaica collections create connections. Topics could include but are
not limited to:

- Work to bring together dispersed collections
- National or international collaborations around collections
- Public outreach to different audiences around specific collections
- "Back to the office" challenges and solutions after remote work

Co-presenters and panel presentations are welcome; however, each presenter
must submit a separate proposal. All submissions must be received by
January 31, 2022. Proposals will be reviewed by the Programming Committee
and all applicants will be notified in March 2022.

The call for proposals can be found here:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1pIqI8xnNqSU6qr50isyAAx8LInpm-EU5Ir2N_3qBUuA__;!!KGKeukY!llscj06giXdfFcYLVUO7POVwzYV512nPQbJ4JlHzEAG8lHDPoYUi2Bz-0i5JpCH7tVw$
 

Looking forward to seeing you in Philly!

My best,
Michelle Margolis Chesner

Hello,

I am wondering if anyone on this list is (or knows of) an archivist at a

Does anyone know the status of the VS Bibliography
on antisemitism?  I've tried to access it a few
times over the past few months and I usually get a time-out error.  Is it
no longer maintained? (I notice that the link is to an aleph system, so
maybe they were hit with the phasing out of Aleph?)

Many thanks,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] World Congress of Jewish Studies - library session?

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

See below for the CFP for the World Congress. Is someone interested in
organizing a Judaica Librarianship (the topic, not the journal :) )
session? If you are thinking about proposing something related to JL,
please let me know and I'll gather topics (if someone else wants to
organize it, I would be very happy to pass that baton).

Hi All,



I’ve sent an announcement regarding the roundtable panel to the CONSALD

various communities:



*CONSALD Roundtable Panel: Part 2, Thursday August 19th, 1:00pm-2:30pm

If you attended the March CONSALD meeting, you’ll recall that the
roundtable discussion with Area Studies Librarians was incredibly rich and
we only had time to address the first of three prompts. All of the
panelists – Florence Mugambi (ALC), Jeffrey Shane (CORMOSEA), Robin
Dougherty (MELA), and moderator Jon Loar (CONSALD) – have graciously agreed
to reconvene to address the remaining prompts, which deal with 1) engaging
social justice and 2) collaborative collecting. We hope you’ll be able to
join us; a calendar invite with additional Zoom info is attached.



All Best,

[ha-Safran] CERL Call to Action Surveys (AJL-RAS)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear RAS colleagues,

Judy Aslpach at CERL reached out to me this morning to ask me to forward
these surveys to the AJL membership. She acknowledged that at present, CERL
does not have a specific project for Hebraica/Judaica collecting, but asked
that we fill in these surveys anyway (perhaps write "Other: AJL" in the
first question about membership) to give voice to the Judaica collections.

This, I hope, will provide important input to CERL as to how/why they
should be working with us as an area collections group. (And maybe it is
something for us to be thinking about from our end as well!)

Please let me know if you have any questions.

My best,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] Teaching remotely with special collections (4/21)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear colleagues,

I will be leading an AJL/AJS roundtable in a few weeks (on April 21)
discussing teaching remotely with special collections. If anyone has been
teaching remotely with special collections and would like to share their
experiences (and is a member of either - or both - organization), please be
in touch so we can coordinate an agenda.

My very best,
Michelle

Thanks to those have replied already!  As a few people have already sent me
the Gallica link, I realized I should clarify - the particular paper she's
looking for is printed in Constantinople, not Paris.

All best,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] CFP: Latin American/Caribbean immigrant & diaspora sources

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear colleagues,

I'm forwarding this call for proposals from our colleagues at the Seminar
on Latin American Library Materials (SALALM). They are particularly
interested in  immigrant and diaspora community newspapers and news sources
in Latin America and the Caribbean - it would be great to have some
representation from Jewish Latin American/Caribbean collections.

I hope this email finds you well.  I am co-teaching a course this semester
on the history of the Jewish book. Of course, this course should ideally
take place in a rare book room, with physical examples of the materials
laid out before the students. Alas, present circumstances do not allow
this, so I put together a website with examples of the concepts/books being
discussed. It's openly available, and relies (where possible) on IIIF
technology to allow page-turning within the site (so there may be a slight
lag as the page loads).  Obviously, the site was created for a specific
classroom context (as reflected in the page divisions), but it is my hope
that it will prove useful to others in teaching and learning beyond this
one class and semester.

),
an online, open access journal of Atla, invites submissions of original
essays from graduate and undergraduate students. The winning essay will be
published in the Fall 2021 issue of Theological Librarianship.



Submissions will be accepted from any student currently enrolled in a
graduate or undergraduate program, regardless of discipline. Essays should
not exceed 5000 words and should address topics that lie within the
intersection of librarianship and religious and theological studies and
that potentially impact libraries.  This includes (but is not limited to)
resources available for the study of religion and theology, digital
techniques and tools for research in the area of religious or theological
studies, and trends in academic librarianship.



Students interested in submitting are encouraged to review the archives of
the journal 
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://serials.atla.com/theolib/issue/archive__;!!KGKeukY!nbXkRYUNJsYyF3IsnbPoxidWbPKwHE8fH5kKnm-P_mHOqPLxxTHumUUeHbyyBiXB4-4$
 
)
to understand the scope of the publication. The winning entry from 2020 is
also available at 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://serials.atla.com/theolib/article/view/1937__;!!KGKeukY!nbXkRYUNJsYyF3IsnbPoxidWbPKwHE8fH5kKnm-P_mHOqPLxxTHumUUeHbyy7MyBosI$

).



The essay contest winner will be selected by the editorial board based on
clarity of the argument, the quality of the contribution to librarianship
in general and theological librarianship in particular, and the relevance
of the subject matter for the journal’s readers.



The author of the winning essay will receive a $500 U.S. cash prize and a
complimentary registration and travel grant to attend the 2022 Atla annual
conference in Baltimore, MD. Proof of current graduate or undergraduate
enrollment will be required upon notification of selection as the winner of
the contest.

Hello all,

After the great success of our first member author lightning round, we'd
like to do a second one, tentatively scheduled for March 14 at noon EST.
If you are an AJL member and recently published a book that you'd like to
highlight in a lightning talk (3-5 minutes), please let me know.  Spaces
are limited, so please get in touch soon!  Some people have already been in
touch with me about a potential talk; even if I've spoken to you already,
please be in touch so I can confirm that the date and time will work for
you.

My best,
Michelle

Re: [ha-Safran] upcoming retirement

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Heidi,

I speak for myself (and I'm sure many others!), when I say THANK YOU is not
nearly enough for all of the tremendous work you have done - for AJL and
Judaica librarianship and cataloging and digital humanities and so much
more!  You were one of the first people I met when I joined AJL - you
welcomed me warmly and never hesitated to answer my (sometimes very
convoluted) questions around cataloging and metadata.

I'd love to say you should never retire, but since you very much deserve
it, I want to wish you, a very happy and fulfilling retirement, and I warn
you that I will continue to be in touch :)

My very best,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] #dhjewish conference January 11-14

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Friends,

Sharing information about this conference - with over 60 presentations on
Jewish Studies in digital contexts.

All best,
Michelle
International Online Conference #DHJewish - Jewish Studies in the Digital
Age 
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://networks.h-net.org/user/login?destination=node*7051232__;Lw!!KGKeukY!g9lg8v7XEEXFa5K1lmZNuTUP0aoX6o7_WwnO_i90JBBYayjp-LJ5zmGd1K829XlGb44$
 >
by Gerben Zaagsma

In all humanities disciplines, scholars find themselves confronted with the
rapidly increasing availability of digital resources (data), new
technologies to interrogate and analyze them (tools), and the question of
how to engage with these developments. The digitisation boom of the last
two decades, and the rapid advancement of digital tools to analyse data in
myriad ways, have opened up new avenues for humanities research. The field
of Jewish Studies is no exception. How can these digital developments be
harnessed to address specific questions and problems in our field? And what
is the current state of the art?

To probe these questions, the international conference *#DHJewish - Jewish
Studies in the Digital Age* will bring together more than 60 scholars and
heritage practitioners to discuss how the digital turn affects the field of
Jewish Studies.

The conference will take place online through the Morressier virtual
academic conference platform; please find *our conference page here
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.morressier.com/event/DHJEWISH2021/5fd2237e54bbb7f516f76f1b__;!!KGKeukY!g9lg8v7XEEXFa5K1lmZNuTUP0aoX6o7_WwnO_i90JBBYayjp-LJ5zmGd1K82IYfs6Ks$
 >
*(currently
under construction). More details on how to register and attend will be
posted on our conference page, and in this news announcement, soon.

The *preliminary conference program can also be downloaded here
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://networks.h-net.org/sites/default/files/dhjewish_2021_-_preliminary_program_-_v3_1.pdf__;!!KGKeukY!g9lg8v7XEEXFa5K1lmZNuTUP0aoX6o7_WwnO_i90JBBYayjp-LJ5zmGd1K82Rmo48_0$
 >
(*subject
to minor changes).

The conference is part of a bigger project which includes an online
portal, currently under development at the C²DH, which will offer a variety
of different types of information on the intersection of Jewish Studies &
Digital Humanities, including a news and events section, a registry of
projects, blogs & forums, as well as a Zotero bibliography.

The conference and website are made possible thanks to a Digital Humanities
Resource Development and Enhancement

Dear friends and colleagues,

I hope this email finds you in good health.  I am writing to invite you to
a special event celebrating the 10th annual Norman E. Alexander Lecture in
Jewish Studies
,
coming up in a few short weeks on December 2, at 12:30 PM EST. To celebrate
a decade of lectures on Jewish Studies topics, this years' event will focus
on scholarly work taking place with the rich collections in the Norman E.
Alexander Library for Jewish Studies. Three excellent scholars will each
give a short presentation of their research, and we will see highlights of
truly unique materials from the collections.

The lecture is free and open to the public, but registration is required,
at the following link: events.columbia.edu/go/nea10

   - Dr. J. H. (Yossi) Chajes (Wolfson Professor of Jewish Thought in the
   Department of History at the University of Haifa and the Director of the
   Ilanot Project) will discuss his work on kabbalistic manuscripts and scrolls
   - Dr. Francesco Spagnolo  (Curator of the Magnes Collection of Jewish
   Art and Life and Associate Adjunct Professor in the Department of Music at
   University of California at Berkeley) will share music relating to the
   Jewish community in Corfu
   - Alexis Hagadorn (Head of Conservation at Columbia University
   Libraries) will describe what she discovered in analyzing paint samples and
   bindings.

Looking forward to seeing many of you! Please feel free to share this with
your lists.

My best,
Michelle Margolis (Chesner)

As the first jolts of the COVID-19 pandemic shook the world, academic
libraries worldwide moved quickly to protect patrons and staff, with many
shutting down their physical collections. Since the start of the pandemic,
Israeli and Jewish studies librarians have adapted and innovated to provide
access to their library resources, all while navigating uncharted and

studies curators will discuss their concerns, priorities, and strategies
for addressing the ongoing challenges and conditions of the COVID-19 era.

[ha-Safran] At Home in the World: A Conversation on Area Studies and International Librarianship

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Hello all,

This is the first in what looks to be a very interesting series.

My best,
Michelle

*At Home in the World: A Conversation on Area Studies and International
Librarianship*
No.1: Our professional organizations

Wednesday, October 14, 2-3:30pm US Eastern
*10am US Pacific / 8pm Central European*

Register:
https://yalelibrary.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwpd-mhpjkiEtTZtncx_u8WgU62bc8HJ4Sx


Invited speakers:

Hélène Huet, University of Florida, & Thomas Keenan, Princeton University
(European Studies Section, ACRL)

Hana Kim, University of Toronto (Council on East Asian Libraries)

Florence Mugambi, Northwestern University (Africana Librarians Council)

Organizers: Anna Arays (Yale University), Lisa Gardinier (University of
Iowa), Chiaki Sakai (Columbia University)

*At Home in the World *is a series of virtual conversations around topics
relevant to Area Studies and International librarianship. Events feature
invited speakers on a particular topic, with a focus on broad discussion
and the opportunity to make new connections within our wider Area Studies
community.



Our first event begins by looking at the professional organizations
supporting Area Studies librarianship. We share common goals but frequently
note the differences in our work and our organizations. What is our common
ground? How deep are our differences? How can we best support each other?



Future events are planned for open access projects and ephemeral and
related collections in Area Studies.


AHW coordinating committee: Anna Arays, Mireille Djenno, Karen
Farrell, Lisa Gardinier, Loyd Mbabu, Mary Rader, Chiaki Sakai, Sócrates
Silva, Ayako Yoshimura

[ha-Safran] Fwd: [collib-l] contribute to Theological Librarianship's Diversity Forum

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

This might be of interest to our Jewish theological library colleagues in
all denominations.  Please take a look!  It would be fabulous if there
could be some contribution from a Jewish denominational library.

My best,
Michelle

Subject: [collib-l] contribute to Theological Librarianship's Diversity
Forum
To: colli...@lists.ala.org 


Please excuse the duplications. Please share with anyone who may be
interested.



In light of recent events in the country and in recognition of
long-standing inequities in the library profession, *Theological
Librarianship* (*TL*) is planning to devote the Spring 2021 issue to a
forum addressing questions of diversity, equity, and inclusion in
theological libraries and librarianship. Such questions take different
forms in different libraries and even in different theological contexts,
and we expect the forum to reflect some of these differences as well as
some common themes across the landscape of theological librarianship. The
*TL* forum will be an opportunity to share your experiences with these
questions at your institution in a brief (750-1500 word) statement or
reflection.



Since diversity, equity, and inclusion (themselves often fraught terms)
evoke a variety of concerns and realties touching race, sex, gender, sexual
orientation, class, disability, religious and ethnic identity, etc., *TL* is
looking for submissions that address this variety in critical and
constructive ways, with a special focus on the intersectional nature of
differing religious commitments and theological perspectives as they engage
with other forms of diversity.



*Theological Librarianship* (https://serials.atla.com/theolib) is an open
access journal publishing peer reviewed articles, as well as essays and
reviews, on subjects at the intersection of librarianship and religious and
theological studies that potentially impact libraries.



The deadline for submissions to the Spring 2021 forum is January 3,
2021. Submissions must be made at
https://serials.atla.com/theolib/about/submissions. Please review the
submission guidelines carefully. You will need to login to create your
submission. If you have not previously created an account, you will need to
register first before a submission can be completed. In the submission
form, select “Special Forum” under the Section drop-down.



If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our editorial
team at editors...@atla.com.

[ha-Safran] Collecting materials related to COVID and Jews/Judaism

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Colleagues,

Many institutions, large and small, have started special collecting
initiatives relating to how COVID has impacted the Jewish community (very
broadly writ).  There is a multi-partner initiative working to collect
information about these collecting projects (no matter how large or small)
so that collecting and cataloging can be coordinated and made more easily
accessible to users.  If you are collecting materials that fit these
criteria, please fill out the form per the below by the end of the day
tomorrow:

If your institution is engaged in a COVID-19-specific collection effort,
please fill out this Google Form

with relevant information by EOD Friday, June 19.

Many thanks,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] International Librarian Roundtable (AJL Conference)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Friends,

One of the good things about our conference moving online is that, with the
location barrier out of the way, we can look forward to hearing from more
of our members (or potential members) who cannot usually attend the
in-person conference.  With that in mind, we have added an International
Librarian Roundtable to the conference for Wednesday morning (July 1) at 8
AM EDT, facilitated by our International Liaison, Michael Young.  We'd like
to hear from those of you in the Eastern Hemisphere (whether you identify
as RAS, SSCPL, or somewhere in between) about what you would like to see
from AJL, and how we can better support your work.  Please join us!

Also, please note that the AJL website had a slight glitch with
international registration that has now been corrected.  If you have been
trying to register and you are outside of North America, please try it
again and see if it works now.

Looking forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks!
Michelle

[ha-Safran] Open Access Books from Brown Judaic Studies

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Colleagues - I've been asked to share the below with the AJL membership

Michelle



Brown Judaic Studies (BJS) announces the launch of our Open Access Books
program.  During the 2019-2020 academic year, with the support of a grant
from the NEH/Mellon Humanities Open Books program
, we have been
digitizing about fifty titles from our backlist in order to make them
publicly accessible at no cost in perpetuity.  The books are available for
download in different formats, including PDF, EPUB, HTML, and plain text
(for text-mining). Most of the books have received additional copyediting
and several contain new prefaces by the authors.  Print on Demand editions
of these new editions will also be available for purchase.

BJS Open Books will be available on the Brown Judaic Studies

website in all formats.  The books can also be accessed, in different
formats, through a number of other sites:  JSTOR
 (HTML and PDF); Project MUSE

[ha-Safran] Kibbutz Yiron Journal?

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

All,

A colleague has asked about the following citation:
 Kibbutz Yiron journal no.2, December 1949.

I haven't been able to find any reference to it.  Does anyone know more
about this journal?

Many thanks,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] Haggada for kids (for our present moment)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Hi all,

I mentioned a haggadah that I had gotten as a free PDF on the AJL check-in
yesterday. It's for younger kids, and has the typical coloring and game
pages, but also includes a very thoughtful section of how kids' lives and
expectations around Passover may have been shaken up because of the
COVID-19 pandemic.  I've reached out to the creator, Sari Kopitnikoff, and
she's asked that anyone interested be in touch with her directly in one of
the following ways: thatjewishmom...@gmail.com, on thatjewishmoment.com,
Facebook.com/thatjewishmoment or instagram.com/thatjewishmoment.

With best wishes for a happy and healthy Passover,
Michelle Chesner

[ha-Safran] Student looking for work in a Judaic library (Arabic knowledge)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Friends,


If anyone is looking for a student assistant in the NYC area, Natalie
Bernstien recently moved back to the US from Morocco after completing a
Fulbright research fellowship looking at contemporary perceptions of Jewish
history. She visited the National Archives of Morocco and the Jewish Museum
of Casablanca and is interested in the library field.


Natalie is looking for a job right now and would like to find work in a
library setting for practical experience before applying to graduate
school. She is currently in New York City and would prefer to stay in the
area, but is willing to relocate for the right position. She has studied
Arabic since 2013, and is most comfortable with MSA and Moroccan Arabic,
but also is proficient in Levantine and Egyptian Arabic dialects. She is a
quick learner who is organized, able to work independently and as part of a
team, and is able to communicate professionally with a diverse range of
people.


Feel free to contact Natalie directly: natalie.bernst...@gmail.com


My best,

Michelle

[ha-Safran] Collection of books (Holocaust +) in NYC

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Safranim,

I just returned from visiting a book-filled apartment of someone who
recently passed, who had great interest in the Holocaust.  There are no
known survivors, and so her neighbors are trying to deal with the materials
there before the landlord comes with a cleaning crew to get rid of
everything.

The collection is primarily modern and in Western languages (English,
French, Italian, and German were prominent) and covers quite a lot of the
20th century.  The owner was a Holocaust survivor who acquired everything
there was to be had on Nazis, the Holocaust, and World War II (as well as
many other areas).  I took some pictures that I'd be happy to send along.

If there is a collection interested in taking some of these books, please
let me know and I'd be happy to send some pictures and put you in touch
with the people working on the apartment.  Ideally, it should go to someone
local or someone who could take the books sooner rather than later, as the
apartment will be emptied out by the end of February.

Michelle

Re: [ha-Safran] Upcoming retirement

Jim was president of AJL when I took my first board position, and so his
presidency shaped my AJL involvement.  Jim, thank you so much for your
leadership and your incredible patience in the face of all sorts of
difficulties. When the Bibliography Award winner last year talked about how
Jim showed her that academia can be a place with kindness, I thought that
was a perfect description.  Your advice and guidance has been amazing on
both a personal level and for AJL as a whole.

Thank you, thank you.

[ha-Safran] Audio for Sassen/Eichmann interviews?

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Hi all,

Does anyone know if the audio of Willem Sassen's interviews with Adolf
Eichmann are available to researchers?  I have a patron interested in doing
an analysis of the audio specifically, and so the transcripts (which I
found via Yad Vashem) will not help.

Thanks in advance!

Re: [ha-Safran] Identifying WC records: Central Bureau of Statistics volumes (Israel)

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Many people have responded, and I thank you all. To clarify: There are
many, many records from the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics for this
period, but none which match the 60 or so volumes that I specifically
have.  This is why I asked if anyone knew of a serial name for it - I was
hoping that I could include all of them under one overall record, and
specify each volumes in the holdings.

Thanks,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] Ashkenazi feminism in pre-state Palestine

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Safranim,

I have been asked to post the following query from Anna Shparberg at Rice
University.  Please respond directly to the student (contact information
below):

I am a 3rd-year undergraduate student of History at Rice University seeking
primary source documents relating to my study of Ashkenazi Jewish women's
suffrage and gender equality movements and organizations in Pre-Mandatory
and Mandatory Palestine from 1880-1948. My study focuses on the
relationship the complex relationship between settler-colonial ideology and
feminist sensibility espoused by these women and their peers in the United
States.

I am seeking:

* Internal documents or published policy from the following
 organizations and their members:
   o Palestine Jewish Women Equal Rights Association
   o The Council of Women Workers, a branch of the
General Confederation of Jewish Workers (Histadrut)
   o Workingwomen's Council
   o Women's International Zionist Organization (WIZO)
   o Mizrahi Women's Organization
   o The Women's League for Equal Rights
   o The Pinor Women's Organization
   o The Women’s Zionist Organization of America (/Hadassah),
particularly the Hadassah Medical Organization and the Palestine Council of
Hadassah
  o /Any other Zionist Women's organizations!/
* Documents relating to community council elections in Jaffa in 1918, with
a specific focus on the women candidates, Adina Kahanovosky and Nehama
Pukhachewski
* Personal writings by Ashkenazi Jewish women on the topic of gender or the
Zionist project, such as the journals of Dorthy Bar-Adon (which I already
have access to)

Information on locating these sources or suggestions for other worthwhile
sources to pursue on this topic would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely,
Ari Forsyth (a...@rice.edu)

[ha-Safran] Early modern Hebrew paleography course

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Call for Applications:
EARLY MODERN HEBREW PALEOGRAPHY WORKSHOP, Feb 9-11, 2020

Footprints: Jewish Books through Time and Place, in conjunction with the
Jewish Theological Seminary, invites applicants to participate in a
three-day workshop in New York City devoted to the study of early modern
Hebrew paleography .

This three-day intensive workshop in New York (February 9-11, 2020) will
train students as well as early career scholars of early modern Jewish
history in paleography and the analysis of manuscript annotations in
printed books.

During this workshop, participants will engage in an intensive study of
early modern Ashkenazic Hebrew hands. They will also be introduced to
Footprints provenance project. The first workshop will be led by Dr. Edward
Fram (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev) and will take place in the newly
re-opened rare book room at the Jewish Theological Seminary. Fram is a
specialist in early modern European Jewish history and focuses on Eastern
and Central Europe.

This workshop is the first of a series of sessions for training in reading
handwriting in Hebrew characters from the early modern period.  We are
hoping to build a cohort that will participate in webinars and a second
follow-up workshop covering additional scripts in 2020. There is no charge
for the workshop for those accepted to the program. Those accepted should
commit to full attendance for the three days. Participants must also be
willing to become (if they are not already) participants in the Footprints
project as contributors of incidental findings to the database as they do
their own research (trusted scholar-sourcers). For more information on the
Footprints project, see here: https://footprints.ccnmtl.columbia.edu/

Participants are responsible for their own travel and lodging, but
subsidies are available for students and early-career scholars as funds
allow. Kosher meals will be provided during the workshop. Space is limited.

Support for this workshop and training program has been provided by the
American Academy of Jewish Research, Rare Book School, Columbia University
Libraries, the Center for Jewish Studies at the CUNY Graduate Center, the
Department of Jewish Studies at Rutgers University, Fordham's Center for
Jewish Studies, the Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies at Columbia
University,  the Jewish Theological Seminary, the Program in Jewish Studies
at Princeton University, and the Ben Zion and Baruch Michah Bokser Memorial
Fund.

To apply, please send a brief letter of interest including current and
future research projects; and a current CV.  Those requesting subsidies
should also send an itemized budget for travel and lodging, including other
funds available and applied for. Graduate students, please list the name
and e-mail for one reference. Send material (and questions about the
program) to: footpri...@columbia.edu

Deadline for applications:  Friday October 11.

[ha-Safran] Historical Atlas of Hasidism (Reference Award Winner) video

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Many people had expressed interest in the Historical Atlas of Hasidism,
which won AJL's reference award this year.  Sharon Horowitz was kind enough
to share a link to a talk from the book's author Marcin Wodzinski about the
book at the Library of Congress when he was in the US last year.  The video
is here: https://www.loc.gov/item/webcast-8623

Enjoy!

Re: [ha-Safran] Artifacts in the catalog

Hi Daniel,

At Columbia, Art Properties is under the jurisdiction of the Libraries, and
so we have artworks listed in the catalog.  You can see a sampling here:
https://clio.columbia.edu/catalog?q=%5Bformat%5D%5B%5D=Art+Work+%28Original%29_field=all_fields=Search

We have a separate format for it: "Art Work (Orginal)"

[ha-Safran] Job opportunity for an MLS/archives student

All,

I was asked to send this to Hasafran:

"My colleagues...have just acquired several hundred magazines, going back
to the 1940s, and are in need of some advice and guidance about how best to
store them. If you know of any library-science or archival-management
students looking for a little work on the side, we'd gladly pay someone to
help take care of this."

Please be in touch with Andrew Koss (ak...@mosaicmagazine.com) for more
information.

[ha-Safran] MA grad student - library job?

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear colleagues,

A former student of mine who just finished his MA at Cambridge (in medieval
Jewish studies with a focus on liturgy) just reached out to ask about
library jobs for the next year.  He is fluent in both French and Latin in
addition to Hebrew, and has a strong grasp of Hebrew texts.  He worked for
me at Columbia throughout his undergrad and I was consistently impressed
with his quick grasp of instructions as well as his work ethic and general
good personality.

If anyone has an opportunity for him (he is flexible about location),
please let me know and I will send you his contact information/CV.

My best,
Michelle

[ha-Safran] Offer of Jewish art collection for a university library

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

I have been asked to post the following, from a donor interested in giving
his collection to a university library:


I have a collection of books on Jewish art and artists that I am interested
in donating to a university library.  The collection contains over 12,000
books, although some are thin gallery catalogues.  Attached is a list of
the collection in three parts:  JAI is a list of the general books about
Jewish art and artists; JAII is a list of the monographs on individual
artists with names from A to K; and JAIII is a list of the monographs on
individual artists with names from L to Z.   About 100 books will be added
to the lists, mostly gallery catalogues, but otherwise the lists are
substantially complete (and will be fully complete in a month or so).  The
artists include painters, sculptors, photographers, architects, and
designers.



Most of the books are in excellent, if not new, condition, and some are
already rare in that condition.  I would want them in a special collection
with limited circulation to preserve their value.  All the books are in
archival book jackets or archival Mylar sleeves, so any library markings
need not mar the books themselves.

[ha-Safran] RAS Brochure

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Colleagues,

I am updating the RAS Division's Brochure, and wanted to add some photos
from our collections.  If you are part of the RAS division, and would be
willing to share images of material (I especially need horizontal images),
could you please send them to me, along with a (very) brief title, call
number, and name of the holding library?

Many thanks,
Michelle

Re: [ha-Safran] AJL at AJS?

[Michelle Chesner via Hasafran]

Dear Erika,

I'm afraid we don't have anything specific at AJS for this year, but many
RAS librarians do go (I was going to, but can't in the end for personal
reasons).  Happy to be in touch if you have further questions!

My best,
Michelle
