The idea of creating a digital archive for Jewish bookstores came up in the Selling Jewish Books panel (thank you for organizing it, Michelle Chesner!) during the conference (again, thank-you to the organizing committee, it was remarkable!). The idea crossed my mind a few months ago when I cleaned up my office and I had a draft email ready to go with the following points (see below); Arthur Kiron had similar thoughts. It will be nice to have a few articles on Jewish bookstores in Judaica Librarianship (one essay will be published in JL 19), but a digital archive that all of us can contribute to will make a beautiful collaborative project that may also evolve into a grant proposal on behalf of AJL to include Jewish publishing houses. Here’s what I had in that draft note: · The work of Michael Winship (U of Texas in Austin) on American bookstores · Highland, Kristen Doyle. 2016. "In the Bookstore: The Houses of Appleton and Book Cultures in Antebellum New York City." Book History 19 (1): 214-255. · Hagit Cohen’s book (2005)At the bookseller's shop: the Jewish book trade in Eastern Europe at the end of the nineteenth century · The Book Shook records (Magnes Museum), OCLC #227005467 · Weiss Family papers, OCLC #861796256 · Books Merkaz (Seattle, WA), http://archiveswest.orbiscascade.org/ark:/80444/xv98779/op=fstyle.aspx?t=k&q=WAUBooksMercazSeattleWash3817%2f Thanks, Rachel Rachel Leket-Mor, MA, MLIS Arizona State University Library PO Box 871006 Tempe, AZ 85287-1006 Phone: 480-965-2618 Editor-in-Chief, Judaica Librarianship Association of Jewish Libraries http://ajlpublishing.org From: Hasafran [mailto:hasafran-boun...@lists.osu.edu]On Behalf Of Shirazi, Gail Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2017 9:01 AM To: 'hasaf...@lists.service.ohio-state.edu' <hasaf...@lists.service.ohio-state.edu> Subject: [ha-Safran] Biegeleisen Books-Oral History While in NY, Galina and I visited Biegeleisen Books in Brooklyn. We had the chance to meet Aaron Biegeleisen (the nephew) and Mr. Biegeleisen (the senior-who just celebrated his 90th birthday). We enjoyed listening to the stories he told about how his grandfather came to this country and set up the business in the early 1900s. They even have a file of letters, invoices and other ephemera dealing with the store that dates back to the “early days”. It would be wonderful if someone in NY could take senior Biegeleisen’s oral history and video it. The firm has been such a part of the Judaica book scene, it would be a shame to miss this opportunity. We did mention to both of the Biegeleisens that it would be a wonderful thing to have done. I’m am hoping someone will like the idea and do it. Maybe the NY Jewish Historical Society or some other organization-even a senior high school project. It would be wonderful to have.
