[ha-Safran] Yeshiva University's Seforim Sale

2014-01-27 Thread Beverly Geller

I have been asked to post following announcement on behalf of the students who 
run the annual Seforim Sale at Yeshiva University:


Dear Safranim:
The Yeshiva University Seforim Sale is just around the corner. The sale will be 
open February 2 - February 23.

The sale is an amazing opportunity for libraries, as we have one of the largest 
selections of Jewish books. One can purchase Talmuds, Bibles, novels, 
cookbooks, etc. If you name it, it is likely we have it. In addition to the 
wide variety of books, the prices of our books are also some of the cheapest... 
particularly those published by Artscroll. For example, If one were to buy a 
set of Artscroll Gemaras from us, one would save hundreds of dollars. We are 
also aware that libraries may want to buy in bulk so we offer a generous 
discount for purchases over $1000.

The sale has a website to enable libraries to purchase books without coming to 
New York. Every title is available online and the site is easy to use.  
www.theseforimsale.comhttp://www.theseforimsale.com

One of the advantages of buying from Yeshiva University is that the profits 
will go towards student organizations. These organizations plan events for the 
students, bring in speakers, and host concerts, among many others exciting 
opportunities.  In short,  this sale seeks to better the student experience at 
Yeshiva University.

Thank you,
Seforim Sale Management

[ha-Safran] Clarification: Seeking Digital Humanities Roundtable participants

2014-01-27 Thread Michelle Chesner
I have gotten quite a few responses to this email, and it seems that I was
not clear:

The session will be a roundtable.  This means that it will be an open (but
guided) discussion of the topic at hand (roughly, digital humanities and
the role of Judaica librarians).  The session will be open for anyone
interested to join and participate, and if there is enough interest, then
we will break it into multiple groups.  What I am looking for are digital
humanities/Jewish Studies experts who are capable (and willing) to guide
these discussions.

Thank you,
Michelle
