[ha-Safran]: Haftarot
--- Message requiring your approval -- From: Chaya Wiesman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: haftarot Sept. 20, 2006 Dear Safranim, Once again I am requesting your help. I have been asked to find a Sefer Haftarot (without mefarshim) suitable for reading at services which means it needs to have a large and clear font, preferably with cantallation marks (trop) but not Koren which apparently has a square font in which the daled can be confused with the resh. I have exhausted my usual sources and though I was able to find something called Sefer Neviim Shalem which fits all the criteria above, it is not arranged according to the haftarot but as a complete navi. If anyone knows of something like this AND where I might be able to purchase it, I would really appreciate your help.

[ha-Safran]: Cataloging
Hi, We use the Elazar classification system. For non-fiction books, we use the prefix YA (Young Adult,) J (Juvenile) or B (Biography) before the call number. The books are then shelved in an integrated fashion, resulting in the very real possibility that YA J books having the same call #'s end up on the same shelf. For example, YA200 could be next to J200.We do put YA stickers on the spines of appropriate books. Our children's library is small, with about 1000 non-fiction books, so it seem impractical to separate YA and J out further. Bu, there is some confusion on the part of patrons. Any ideas on how to make it more patron-friendly? Thanks!!

Re: [ha-Safran]: Jewish Book Month
Coincidently, the 87th annual Children's Book Week, sponsored by the Children's Book Council (CBC) will be held November 13-19. Their website http://www.cbcbooks.org/cb.cbcbooks.org/cbw has some great ideas for programming and publicity, although none of it is specifically for Jewish books.

RE: [ha-Safran]: Jewish Book Month
I would like to suggest that we add a link to the AJL website for Jewish Book Month. Perhaps JBC will give AJL Council the information each year in advance so we can post, it or provide a link to their site. Shana Tova to all!
