Amalia:
I will write a draft. However, it should go to the president and
officers of the congregation. The rabbi is just an employee. Also I
think 10, 20 or a 100 letters makes a bigger impression than one letter.
I am always dismayed in my organization at the decisions made in the
district office as if the decision makers never met a student or
faculty member.

I agree with Mr. Stulman that a letter to the Rabbi from AJL
president is in place. In addition I would like to start a petition
to protest Temple Emanuel-El's Board decision.
Daniel, can you, pleases, write the petition ?

been lost on even the most educated readers. The public sees the
public face of the collection and circulation. They don't see the
skill and preparation it takes to create and maintain a
collection. When I was a synagogue librarian, the congregation
never took advantage of my skills. Once they had a meeting with a
consultant right in the library. The consultant knew less about
the topic than I did. They could have saved their money and just
talked with me. NO! Outsiders are the experts (Sarcasm!).

would happen if we shared with our administration, students,
parents and other stakeholders one great thing we accomplished this
year? Better yet what if we just shared the routine things we do
every day to make our institutions a better place?
