Here are some quotes from my Editor’s Note: I would like to thank the following individuals who contributed their time and talent to making this issue what it is. Nancy Sack, who retired from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in mid-2024, provided critical copyediting assistance for one of the articles and guidance regarding another. Paula Breger (Temple Emanu-El in Haverhill, Massachusetts), Josh Shelly (Potsdam University Library), and Amanda Widom (JDC Archives) have commendably assisted with copyediting of the rest of the articles. Shoshana Traum and Anthony Catanese helped with proofreading some of the articles. Special thanks are due to Aaron Taub and Zachary Baker for their good advice, and to Yossi Galron for his practical help with the many Yiddish Romanization challenges and several bibliographical conundrums. In addition to copyediting, Josh Shelly also advised me regarding open access best practices, hence the addition of copyright information on each of the articles. Thank you, all! JL’s editorial board expresses its gratitude to Dr. Ariann Stern and Haim A. Gottschalk who have generously established the Manfred Gottschalk Judaica Librarianship Endowment to support the publication of JL in memory of Manfred Gottschalk. On behalf of the JL editorial board, I offer our heartfelt and manifold thanks for securing the future of AJL’s peer-reviewed journal! The next issue of the journal, dedicated to Canadian collections, is guest-edited by Nadav Sharon (University of Toronto Libraries) and Hannah Srour-Zackon (Congregation Shaar Hashomayim Archives, Montreal, Quebec). Starting in that next issue, Katalin Rac of Emory University Libraries will join JL as editor of the book review section. Thank you, Nadav, Hannah, and Katalin! JL 23 Table of Contents: 1.
