I know Joan will love my next question :-) What is the correct romanization of BRSLV ברסלב
Is it Braslav or Breslav or Breslev or something else all forms found in the OCLC data-base In LC: Braslav - 104 times Breslev - 190 times Breslav - 137 times In the Encyclopaedia Judaica (1972) there is a small town in Belarus called Braslav (in Polish: Braslaw) - but they do not mention the Hassidic sect - so I am not sure that this is the source.
