I used to work in the Ostrow Library from 1994-1999 when Rick Burke was
Librarian. It was a wonderful place!

>From the article:
After some 45 years occupying an iconic piece of real estate in Los Angeles,
American Jewish University plans to sell “all or part” of its 35-acre campus….
American Jewish University announced the decision in a letter to its students
that said the sale would help pay for more academic offerings and community
programs as the institution increasingly turns digital….
AJU President Jeffrey Herbst called the decision by the university’s board to
proceed with the sale “bold” and “strategic”….
The campus also features offices, a cafeteria, an events space,a library with a
small but significant collection of rare books, and a mikvah or ritual
bath.It’s unclear what the university will do with its library collection."
