2022-03-03 Thread London, Shira via Hasafran
Does anyone have a copy of the Holocaust memoir The Puzzleman, by Ivan Moscovich that they are willing to lend for a short time? Our library would pay all shipping and insurance costs. I have searched everywhere for this book. The author lives in the Netherlands, and although I have contacted

2022-01-31 Thread London, Shira via Hasafran
Do most day school libraries (especially high school libraries) still lend DVDs (and flat-screen TVs connected to DVD players) to show films? I'm trying to ascertain whether day school librarians have switched over to electronic files where AV is concerned, or not. We are trying to decide the

[ha-Safran] Which Weine number do you use?

2015-06-03 Thread London, Shira
I'm curious as to how other libraries are classifying books such as Klinghoffer's Why the Jews Rejected Jesus, and Twenty-Six Reasons Why Jews Don't Believe in Jesus, by Asher Norman. I've been looking at z296.1 (Jewish-Christian relations) or even z250 (theology). It's not really z296.4

[ha-Safran] Call numbers for BDS and Anti-Zionism?

2015-04-28 Thread London, Shira
Does anyone have an idea for a Weine number for books on BDS? Also, I've used z301 for anti-Zionism, as it melds with anti-Semitism, but if anyone differs and has another idea, I'd love to hear about that, as well. Thanks! Shira London Upper School Librarian Beth Tfiloh Dahan Community School

2012-03-02 Thread London, Shira
I would be interested to hear which Weine number libraries have been using for Donna Rosenthal's book The Israelis. I want to re-classify our copy; I feel it requires a number that covers a sociological perspective, rather than a general or historical one. Shira London Upper School Librarian
