Michelle, I don't know who's in charge of Judaica specifically, but I recently had occasion to use their online "ask a librarian" service regarding a specific Hebraica manuscript and was promptly and ably helped by whomever the appropriate person is there. I suppose the question is forwarded to the subject specialist if the person on the receiving end isn't able to field the query.

Go to http://www.bnf.fr/en/collections_and_services/a.ask_a_librarian_sindbad.html and select "Manuscripts" from the "question's subjects" drop-down menu. There you can ask for the direct contact info if that is all your patron needs.

Good luck and happy sleuthing, Jasmin

I have a graduate student who is looking to access manuscripts at the
Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, but we are having trouble finding contact
information for the person who deals with the Judaica specifically.  Does
anyone know if there is a Judaica curator (or its equivelent) at the BnF?

Thank you very much,
Michelle
