Re: [ha-Safran]: Subject heading
Dear Margot, I encourage you to go consider establishing the disengagement from Gaza as a subject heading as Aaron suggests. If your institution is not an independent PCC member and thus not a member of SACO, may I recommend that your institution join the Judaica SACO Funnel. We would welcome the contributions from the Simon Wiesenthal Center of which I am sure that there could be potentially many unique and important subject heading contributions from which we could all benefit and use. If you do consider joining the funnel please feel free to contact me and I can outline the steps for you. You can also take a look at the SACO website at http://www.loc.gov/catdir/pcc/saco/saco.html.

[snip] Yours, Lauris TEXT OF LETTER 12 May 2006 Beacher J.E. Wiggins Director for Acquisitions and Bibliographic Access Library of Congress Washington, DC 20540-4300 Dear Director Wiggins, The membership of the Africana Librarians Council - the organization of professional librarians working in African studies and a sponsored organization of the African Studies Association (U.S.) - has requested that I notify you regarding our concern over the Library of Congress's 20 April 2006 decision to cease creating series authority records and providing controlled series access in bibliographic records. Series control, as with all aspects of bibliographic control, is critically important in the ever-expanding world of book publishing in Africa. As with many industries in developing countries, African book publishing often seems unsystematic, with books typically printed in short runs and reprinted several years later exhibiting changes in bibliographic elements. We see any erosion in bibliographic control as harmful to the Library of Congress's mission to collect research materials from African countries and also to its Cooperative Acquisition Program partnerships with U.S. research libraries. We observe that African studies readers in the U.S. rely upon series names as brands of quality. Several major African publishers have made formal arrangements with U.S. and other publishers to co-publish, reprint, or distribute their titles outside Africa. To navigate through this confusing and duplicative literature, bibliographers, acquisitions librarians, and - most important - readers, especially scholarly readers, need controlled series names. Your annual report for FY2005 noted that the Library of Congress has moved to improve the cataloging capabilities of its overseas offices. The Library of Congress's overseas offices serve as a major acquisitions source for U.S. research libraries. Your achievement - including direct inputting into Voyager - will accelerate access to overseas acquisitions for American readers, as the bibliographic records created by the overseas offices are becoming available to Library of Congress Cooperative Acquisition Program partners even as we unpack the shipping boxes! Preserving the privileges of overseas office cataloging staff to produce authority records takes advantage of in- country headings research, which replaces costly transatlantic communication. Continuing the practice brings economic benefits by reducing State-side workloads - both at the Library of Congress and among those U.S. research libraries building African collections with one or no Africanist cataloger - with no or negligible fiscal increases. And most important, it would strengthen the professionalization of librarians in developing countries. We hope that you will lead a re-examination of the Library of Congress's series authority decision. We ask also that you avoid making similar decisions in the future without consulting your partners in the Library of Congress's Program for Cooperative Cataloging, and your professional colleagues in the Asian, African and Middle Eastern Section of the Association of College and Research Libraries and in the Cataloging Classification Section Committee on Cataloging Asian African Material of the Association for Library Collections Technical Services. Please do not hesitate

[ha-Safran]: Johann Habermann - Dikduk leshon ha-kodesh
Dear safranim, I have a volume in hand which I belive contains parts 1 and 2 of Johann Habermann's Dikduk leshon ha-kodesh = Grammatices ebraicae sanctae (Wittenberg, 1562). I have a title page for pt. 2 but I am lacking a title page and perhaps some preliminary pages for part 1. I have checked RLIN and OCLC to see if any libraries in the U.S. have this edition but none appear to (some libraries have later editions). Several German libraries do carry it but I am hoping to locate a copy in this country. If your library does have pt. 1 of the 1562 edition, would you be able to scan the title page and last few pages so that I can positively identify the piece in hand.

Dear Safranim, I would like to announce the formation of the Judaica SACO Funnel Project.

Participants should have a basic familiarity with the procedures and guidelines found in the Subject Cataloging Manual: Subject Headings (SCM H), LCSH, Free-Floating Subdivisions: An Alphabetical Index, Subject Cataloging Manual: Classification (SCM F), LC Classification, the MARC 21 Authority Format, and standard reference sources.

[ha-Safran]: help identifying book
Dear safranim, I have a book that appears to be 52 [i.e. 104] p. Unfortunately it is missing the first 27 [i.e. 54] pages including the title page. My guess is that it dates from the early 19th century (?) and may have been printed in Northern or Central Europe. What there is includes haftarah for Tishah be-Av, Shir ha-yihud, various yotsrot, some selihot, liturgy for Yom kipur katan, dine milah, dine halah, dine kevurah and dine avelut. If and of you could think of what it may be I would be most appreciative. Thanks in advance, Heidi Lerner Heidi G. Lerner Hebraica/Judaica Cataloger Catalog Dept. Stanford Univ.

help with book
Dear Safranim, I have a book in hand that is lacking a title page. Based on content, language (Hebrew and Yiddish) and no. of pages (80 [i.e. 160), I think that it might be the following: Aaron Berechiah ben Moses, of Modena, d. 1639. Maavar yabok. Vin : Anton Shmid, 1813. If any of you have this book, I would be very appreciative if you could contact me and we could compare the text from a few pages. Thank you, Heidi Lerner Heidi G.
