Re: [ha-Safran]: Pertinent article on moderation just in time

2010-06-11 Thread ALBA TOSCANO
Thank you Sephanie Gross for this article:
https://mail.google.com/mail/http://americanlibrariesmagazine.orghttp://americanlibrariesmagazine.org
I read this twice. While reading I the first time, my stomach did 
little somersaults while remembering my embarrassment on two 
occasions when I crashed and burned oh, so, big time as a moderator. 
So I went back and read it again.

See you all in a couple of weeks in Seattle. Though I really do like 
rain, Ihope it rains just a tad less there than it's been doing here.

Subject: p.s...my friend needs a roomie for July 5-7
To: kpinch...@gmail.com

Dear Kathe,

Hi!  BTW, my friend Elizabeth Forrest needs a roommate...

I contacted Suzy Dubin to see if she knew of anyone who needed a 
roommate July 5-7th but unfortunately the woman who she referred me 
to had already found someone.

Do you happen to know of anyone?  Since Elizabeth isn't on email (I 
know...how is that POSSIBLE?!?), you can forward this to anyone you 
think may be interested and they can contact me.

Thank you!



Warmest,
April Halprin Wayland

[ha-Safran]: PS - new book - WORKING WITH BERNSTEIN

2010-06-11 Thread Miller, Philip
In my original posting yesterday I completely neglected to mention that
Gottlieb goes into extensive detail about Leonard Bernstein's
Jewishness.

Others may have mentioned it in passing, but only Gottlieb goes into it
extensively.

[ha-Safran]: Manuscript Committee opening

2010-06-11 Thread AiDonna
One opening on the Sydney Taylor Manuscript Award Committee has been filled.
However, there is a second  opening on the  Manuscript Award Committee
that still needs to be filled. The term is for 5 years beginning in July 2010
and ending in June 2015. The following is a description of the duties of
Committee members:

Those interested in serving on the Committee should have some background in
written book reviewing or similar experience and a familiarity with the
goals and constructs of children's literature.

The committee's duties consist of reading unpublished manuscripts and
writing evaluations of those manuscripts. The committee then deliberates via
email to choose a successful candidate and winner of the Sydney Taylor
Manuscript Award. Committee members must be able to meet deadlines 
and must commit to
thoughtful, detailed written  evaluations. Manuscripts for consideration
are accepted until December 15; a decision is reached by March 15.

Anyone who wants to be part of this exciting committee should submit a
resume and sample reviews to Aileen Grossberg, Chair, Sydney Taylor Manuscript
Award Committee, 204 Park Street, Montclair, NJ 07042. Potential committee
members may also email  the requested material to stmac...@aol.com.

Please respond prior to the AJL Convention  as there will be an
organizational meeting held during the convention.  Feel free to 
contact me with any
questions about the committee. Refer to the AJL websites for more details.
