Hello. My library, like many others, is examining its collection to identify potential items for digitizing. We are considering concentrating on Yiddish periodicals and on Hebrew literature out of copyright. I am aware of the Benyehuda Project in Israel, as well as the digitizing by the National Library in Jerusalem. I would appreciate learning about any other library or institution that may be considering digitizing in the subject areas listed above. I would also very much like to find out if anyone reading Hasafran is aware of ogranizations or individuals who might be interested in funding these areas.
Thanks Jim Rosenbloom James P.
