I am so sorry about this very sad news. There is nothing more I can add to
what has already been written about her.
We will all miss her. She was always so nice to everybody. It was a pleasure
for me to speak with her every year during conventions. She was always
concerned about Jewish life in Argentina.

Leah
Gracious, knowledgable, refined, understanding, tolerant, elegant, a truly
beautiful woman and human being.Always welcoming and inquisitive, great for a
chat or for repartee, serious and businesslike, yet unlike so many others
stillexcited by new material, ideas and knowledge.
She will be missed by all of us who have known her, especially by the students,
those she mentored, along with her colleagues,and most of all by her family,
who she loved to talk about, supported and loved.
May her memory be for a blessing and may her deeds continue to influence others
for years to come.

Dear colleagues,
I'm very sad to report that Leah Adler, Head Librarian of Hebraica-Judaica at
Yeshiva University, died this weekend after an illness that she managed quietly
and successfully until recently. The funeral will be in Israel, and the flight
to Israel is today. As plans for a memorial at the Gottesman Library of
Hebraica-Judaica materialize, we'll send out a notice.
Throughout her illness, rather than talk about herself and her physical
discomfort, Leah expressed concern for others--about the effect of her absence
on their work loads. In the workplace, Leah was always disarmingly candid and
honest; she never hesitated to bring up important issues, regardless of how
challenging those issues were.
After decades of service, Leah seems inseparable from the history of Yeshiva
University Libraries. We all share in mourning her loss. Let us all support
one another as we grieve.
