[ha-Safran] Announcements from the Hebraic Section, Library of Congress

[Brener, Ann]

The Hebraic Section of the African and Middle Eastern Division,

Library of Congress



Announcements:





1. Display of ancient Torah Scroll Sheet (March 28th - April 15th)



We are delighted to announce that our recently acquired scroll sheet from the 
Book of Exodus will be on display just in time for Passover. So if turning your 
house upside down for Passover cleaning is not quite enough to get you into the 
festival spirit, we hope you will find time to come visit! The scroll sheet 
will be on display in the Great Hall of the Thomas Jefferson Building, near the 
Gutenberg Bible.



If you haven't yet read about the Library's wonderful new acquisition, please 
see our Facebook 
post.
 Just write "exodus" in the Search Box on the right.



2. Two new illustrated blogs highlighting treasures in the Hebraic Section



- Micrography in the Jewish 
Tradition



[cid:image001.jpg@01D3C028.A5E21B80]





- Bookselling at the Crossroads: An Anecdote of Hebrew Book History from the 
Early Ottoman 
Empire



[cid:image003.jpg@01D3C029.E27DE550]

With best wishes for Passover!

Librarian

[ha-Safran] update on "Stolen Words: The Nazi Plunder of Jewish Books"

[Brener, Ann]

Dear Colleagues,

Since so many of you have written to ask about last week's talk by Mark 
Glickman, author of Stolen Words: The Nazi Plunder of Jewish Books, let me say 
that there will indeed be a webcast of Rabbi Glickman's excellent presentation. 
It may take a while - possibly 2-3 months - but eventually it will be 
available. In the meantime, some of you might like to read this review of his 
talk, posted just today in the Library of Congress Gazette: 
http://www.loc.gov/staff/gazette/uploads/2016/05/20_Gazette_052016_color.pdf

Shabbat shalom.

[ha-Safran] Hebrew Printing in the Orient - a new exhibit at GWU

[Brener, Ann]

Hebrew Printing in the Orient

Curated by Brad Sabin Hill,

Gelman Library, GWU


I would like to extend warmest congratulations to Brad Sabin Hill on the 
opening of his new exhibit, Hebrew Printing in the Orient, now on display at 
the Gelman Library in George Washington University. As always, Brad's work is a 
tour-de-force of scholarship and taste, allowing visitors to take in the 
fullest extent of his vast subject while yet enjoying a leisurely view of the 
individual treasures along the way. This is a beautiful display on a very 
unusual and exciting topic. I see that there are some fine photographs online 
at http://gwuscrc.tumblr.com/ - but anyone who can, certainly should see the 
display itself!



Again, warmest congratulations to Brad for creating this very special exhibit.





Ann Brener, Library of Congress

Re: [ha-Safran] [QUAR] Celebrating AJL's50th at the Library of Congress: a Display from the Collections of the Hebraic Section

[Brener, Ann]

Thank you, Yaffa.  That was so kind of you to write. I believe the credit can 
actually go to more senior members of the administration here at the Library of 
Congress, Dr. Mary-Jane Deeb, Chief of the African and Middle Eastern Division, 
and to Dr. Helena Zinkham, Director of Collections and Services. It was their 
eagerness  to support AJL's Jubilee Celebration that made it all possible.

Many thanks again! I look forward to seeing you soon.
  Ann

[ha-Safran] Announcing the Retirement of Peggy Pearlstein from the Hebraic Section of the Library of Congress

[Brener, Ann]

Dear Friends and Colleagues:

On September 30, 2013, I will be retiring from the Library of Congress after 31 
years, all of them spent in the Hebraic Section of the African and Middle 
Eastern Division, the last 6 years as Head of the Section.

It has truly been a privilege to serve the research needs of Congress, 
scholars, and the general public during my tenure.

It has been a pleasure to have been actively involved in AJL for so many years 
and in so many different capacities - as a past President of the Research 
Libraries, Archives, and Special Collections Division (2004-2006), Chair of the 
Judaica Reference  Bibliography Book Awards Committee, 2002-2004, Chair of the 
Travel Stipend Committee (1996-1998) and Co-Chair of the Convention Stipend 
Committee (2006-2011), a presenter and panel participant, and Co-Chair of the 
35th Annual Convention that was held in Washington, DC (2000).

I cherish the friendships that I have made through AJL and look forward to 
continuing to be in touch with all of you. My personal email is 
peggypearlst...@yahoo.commailto:peggypearlst...@yahoo.com.

The AJL conference will be held in Silver Spring, Maryland in 2015 and I hope 
to see all of your there!

Peggy Pearlstein

[ha-Safran] Yiddish American Popular Sheet Music: A Finding Aid

[Brener, Ann]

The Library of Congress is pleased to announce a new Finding Aid for:

Yiddish American Popular Sheet Music
at the Library of Congress
http://lcweb2.loc.gov/diglib/ihas/html/yiddish/yiddish-about.html


The Library's holdings of Yiddish American popular songs include the Irene 
Heskes Collection of Yiddish American sheet music (drawn from the archives of 
the Hebrew Publishing Company during her New York project in 1980) as well as 
copyright deposits already in the custody of the Library and materials drawn 
from other Library collections, primarily in the Hebraic Section of the African 
and Middle Eastern Division and the Music Division. The majority of the 
selections found here originated in the Yiddish theater, but popular-style 
arrangements of folk songs and sacred songs as well as instrumental numbers can 
also be found.


The site also provides links to related resources at the Library of Congress.
