[ha-Safran] Fw: Big news from the Yiddish Book Center

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

 

   - Forwarded Message - From: Aaron Lansky 
To: Haim Gottschalk Sent: 
Tuesday, February 27, 2024 at 12:03:15 PM ESTSubject: Big news!
   





| To borrow from Sholem Aleichem, I have frishe nayes—fresh news—to share with 
you. |


|  |
| 
 

Dear Haim,

To borrow from Sholem Aleichem, I have frishe nayes—fresh news—to share with 
you. Sixteen months from now, on my 70th birthday, I will retire as president 
of the Yiddish Book Center. I wanted to let you and other friends know directly 
why I’ve come to this decision, who will succeed me, what I plan to do next, 
and what you can do to make sure the Center’s work continues long into the 
future.


It’s hard to believe almost 45 years have passed since I took what I thought 
would be a two-year leave of absence from graduate school to save Yiddish 
books. At the time, scholars estimated just 70,000 volumes could still be 
found; we collected that number in six months and went on to recover 1.5 
million. Over the years you helped us establish Yiddish collections at major 
libraries and place our titles online, where they’ve been downloaded five 
million times. You helped us find new ways to translate Yiddish books and bring 
them to English readers. We revolutionized Yiddish-language learning with a 
new, state-of-the-art textbook. We filmed thousands of hours of oral histories 
and produced podcasts, radio programs, an English-language magazine, and 
groundbreaking exhibitions. We launched Yidstock: The Festival of New Yiddish 
Music. And we introduced lively educational programs to bring Jewish history, 
literature, and culture to students of all ages. Along the way we also built 
our own “shtetl”: two connected, architecturally distinctive buildings that are 
welcoming, sunny, and full of life. Thanks to you and other loyal supporters we 
did all this with a balanced budget and not a penny of debt.


Why would I want to retire now, when we’ve come so far and accomplished so 
much? The answer is because we have accomplished so much. Running the Center is 
the only job I’ve had since graduating college. For years I worked twelve hours 
a day, six days a week. I hoisted so many boxes of books onto my shoulder I 
required surgery to repair the damage. Although my devotion to the Yiddish Book 
Center remains undiminished, I can no longer lay claim to the extravagant 
energy of my younger years, when Yiddish speakers used to refer to me as “der 
yungerman,” the young man. Ecclesiastes teaches, “Lakol eys ulakol zman—To 
everything there is a season.” As proud as I am of what we’ve achieved, I 
recognize that the time has come to pass the torch to new leaders with vision, 
talent, and dreams of their own.


Our board’s succession committee has been quietly preparing for this moment for 
a long time, and I think you’ll be pleased to learn that my successor will be 
our executive director, Susan Bronson. Susan and I have worked closely together 
for 14 years, and she’s played a pivotal role in bringing the Center to where 
we are today. With a PhD in history and years of experience, she is a natural 
leader: strong, strategic, collaborative, and resourceful. She’s well-liked by 
our staff and widely respected in the Jewish world, where she served as chair 
of the Council of American Jewish Museums. She has a gift for forging strategic 
partnerships, and she’s eager to expand the Center’s work to younger 
constituents. Best of all, she already knows the Yiddish Book Center inside and 
out. I share our board’s confidence that she’ll bring a steady hand and new 
inspiration to what is already an uncommonly sound and successful organization.


As for me, I won’t be leaving the Center completely. Instead, I’ve agreed to 
stay on for two more years after I retire as president in the part-time role of 
senior advisor. My plan is to assume special assignments and, when possible, to 
resume teaching, writing, and other intellectual pursuits that I had to put on 
hold while building the Center.


As you know, the Yiddish Book Center has never stood still, and we’re not about 
to start now. During my remaining time as president, I promise to do everything 
in my power to make sure the organization we built, the books we saved, and the 
culture we reclaimed will endure. My to-do list for the next sixteen months is 
an ambitious one. I want to expand our educational programs, to translate more 
Yiddish books into English, and to roll out the Universal Yiddish Library: our 
plan to pool our digitized holdings with those of other major libraries and 
make Yiddish, once in danger of extinction, the most accessible literature on 
Earth. I’m also looking forward to traveling with Susan to visit with members 
and tell you more about our exciting plans for the years ahead, and to lay the 
groundwork for a campaign to increase our endowment to $100 million before our 
50th anniversary in 2030.


All that, however, still lies ahead. For now, what I want to say as I

to reconsider posts to the listserv that identify leaders by name/workplace

As I was not expecting any support for Israel from ALA, I printed out AJL's 
"Love Your Neighbor - Israel" booklist and dropped them off to local public 
libraries and bookstores. 
Each encounter spent a few minutes explaining the importance of accurate 
materials. I then followed up with emails to managers and supervisors. These 
few minutes which I might have spent in a coffee shop were well spent. This 
small step may not seem as splashy as a big statement from a major 
organization, but the money I saved by not buying that $5 latte can then be 
donated.
Am Yisra'el Hai,

Re: [ha-Safran] Sad news

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

 My wife and I are saddened to learn of the passing of Adaire Klein, may her 
name be for a blessing. I've known Adaire for many, many years, since I was in 
high school. Adaire was a very kind and special person - she helped me expand 
my knowledge of the Holocaust, especially when I was a student at YULA HS. When 
I joined the AJLSC, Adaire helped me with programming events and gave me 
guidance and mentorship in librarianship. Moreover, I have many fond memories 
of Adaire and Manny hosting my wife and me many times, and being a grandparent 
after my daughter was born. May Adaire's name be for a memory. Barukh Dayan 
ha-Emet.

importantly for recognizing Jewish advocacy work as significant and worth 
awarding. With deep thanks to Heidi Rabinowitz, who has been my partner for so 
much of this Jewish book equity work. I am so proud of the projects and 
communities we have created. Also thank you to my colleagues at ALA and the 
Association of Jewish Libraries and to everyone in the library, bookselling and 
publishing fields who have been so supportive of Jewish books. Thank you to my 
synagogue colleagues and library patrons, who I have been working for. I am 
also honored to be recognized for my mentoring. That is truly an important part 
of my professional life and I am so proud of my mentees and what they have 
accomplished. I really feel this is a group award, for all the work we have 
done together, to expand the world of Jewish books for all Jewish and 
non-Jewish readers. We have done so much... and we have so much more to do.Toda

[ha-Safran] AJL Classroom course line up

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

Dear Colleagues,
The Librarianship and Education Committee is proud to present the new AJL 
Classroom lineup for library staff in SSCPL libraries
If you have questions, please feel free to contact me.


Introduction to Cataloging Principles
February 7, 14, 21, 5:00–7:00 pm ET

When tasked with organizing your synagogue library, where do you start? This 
three-session introductory course will introduce you to the basic principles of 
cataloging and organizing the synagogue library.
Instructor: Haim Gottschalk

Outreach and Programming
March 12, 16, 19, 23, 7:00–9:00 pm ET

Explore various programming and outreach ideas that can connect the entire 
synagogue community to the library, and learn how to partner with other 
synagogue professionals and lay leaders to expand the library’s reach and 
relevance.
Instructors: Stacey Weinberg and Jessica Fink

Introduction to Library Management
April 16, 20, 23, 6:00–8:00 pm ET

Does your library have a collection development plan? Do you know how to create 
a library procedure manual? How to assign work for volunteers? Through 
discussions, examples from instructors’ libraries, and homework, this highly 
interactive class will delve into these topics and more, allowing you to create 
plans and policies that will help you manage your library’s day-to-day 
operations. An assignment due at the end of session 3 will demonstrate that you 
are able to create the policies required for AJL SSCPL advanced certification.
Instructors: Sean Boyle and Aviva Rosenberg

Introduction to Synagogue Archives
May 4, 11, 17, 6:00–8:00 pm ET

Are you passionate about preserving the history of your synagogue? Does your 
synagogue have a collection of unsorted boxes or cabinets of documentary 
material and you’re unsure where to start? Synagogue archives are often 
under-accessed treasure troves for the history of 19th- and 20th-century 
Judaism and Jewish communities. This class will introduce participants to the 
key concepts of archival principles, methods, and practices for application in 
a synagogue setting. Through interactive discussions and assignments, 
participants will learn the fundamentals required to create a sustainable 
synagogue archive.
Instructor: Hannah Srour-Zackon

 Dear Laurel,
Thank you so much for be-friending me and welcoming me to the Klau Library and

and for walking me through the many different avenues of Judaica Librarianship. 
For being their when Racheli and I chaired the 2007 Conference in Arizona. And 
for all of your many, many contributions to Judaica librarianship! I wish you 
much success as you start the next chapter in life.
Sincerely,Haim

Dear colleagues,
 
  
 
Today was Jerry Anne’s last day as “Active Retiree” at Yale.
 
  
 
Yes…. Jerry Anne retired some seventeen months ago. Yet, she had been so 
gracious to continue working part time until we found a new cataloger …
 
  
 
Thanks to Jerry Anne’s sense of mission and her efforts alone, the “Judaica 
collection ship” at Yale Library was kept afloat (because, what are we all 
without cataloging?). Jerry Anne even stayed long enough to help train our new 
colleague Tali. 
 
  
 
I will never know how she did it, but even working only part time, she managed 
to keep the backlog to a minimum.
 
  
 
It was a great privilege for me to work with Jerry Anne, who even found the 
time to help me find my footing with her kindness and excellent sense of humor.
 
  
 
Please join me in wishing her all the best for the new stage of her life and in 
thanking her for all what she has done for our mission and profession.

Dear colleagues,
 
 
 
I am very delighted to introduce you to Tali Winkler, Yale University Library’s 
new Hebraica Metadata Librarian.
 
 
 
Tali started her position on October 24th. She came to us from the University 
of Chicago, where she had been a doctoral candidate working on her dissertation 
on the Jewish Book Trade in Early Modern Germany. She gained a M.A. in Medieval 
Jewish History from Yeshiva University and a B.A. in Near Eastern Languages and 
Civilizations from the University of Pennsylvania.
 
  
 
In addition to her studies, Tali has spent time in libraries, museums, and 
auction houses since being an undergraduate. Among others, she was involved in 
the Footprint Project; in that capacity, she spent time at the Spertus 
Institute for Jewish Learning and Leadership working with their rare book 
collection where she proved her excellent paleographic skillsin Hebrew as well 
as early modern German scripts.
 
  
 
Please join me in welcoming Tali (and feel free to drop her an email 
attali.wink...@yale.edu).

[ha-Safran] Cataloging Forum - Reminder

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

Hello everybody,
Just a reminder of the RAS-Cataloging Committee - Cataloging Forum happening 
next week. The target audience for this roundtable is the RAS cataloger, but 
all AJL members are welcome.
Best,Haim

RAS Roundtable: Cataloging Forum—LCDGT
Thursday, November 17, 2022
9:30 am PT / 12:30 pm ET / 7:30 pm Israel Time

A patron is looking for a specific book, for example, one written by a Hebrew 
language instructor and intended for students of the Hebrew language. To help 
with the search, the cataloger might include specific headings in the 
bibliographic record. These headings are the Library of Congress Demographic 
Group Terms (LCDGT)—a controlled vocabulary created by the Library of Congress 
to supplement the Library of Congress Subject Headings by bringing out the 
demographic group of the author and/or the intended audience. This forum will 
discuss the best practice use of the LCDGT headings, where in the bibliographic 
record and Name Authority Records these LCDGT headings are recorded, and the 
process of submitting proposals for new LCDGT headings.
This event is sponsored by AJL’s RAS division and is for AJL members only. All 
members are welcome.

Dear Colleagues,

Cataloging Form: LCDGT headings

Thursday, November 17, 2022

12:30pm ET
A patron is looking for a specific book, one written by aHebrew language 
instructor and intended for students of the Hebrew language. Tohelp out with 
the search, the cataloger might include specific headings in thebibliographic 
record. The headings are the Library of Congress DemographicGroup Terms (LCDGT) 
- a controlled vocabulary created by the Library ofCongress to supplement the 
Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) bybringing out the demographic 
group of the author, and/or the demographic groupof the intended audience.  
These terms are intended to help patrons inspecific searches for works by 
specific types of creators or for works directedtoward specific audiences. This 
Cataloging Forum will discuss the best practiceuse of the LCDGT headings, where 
in the bibliographic record and Name AuthorityRecords these LCDGT headings are 
recorded, and making proposals.
This event is for AJL members only.
Stay tuned for registration information!


All the best,

Haim

I'm looking for materials that are comprehensive, inclusive, scholarly yet

[ha-Safran] AJL Presents Salo Baron: Historian of the Jews and Champion of Libraries

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

AJL Presents Salo Baron: Historian of the Jews and Champion of Libraries
Monday, May 23, 2022
10:00 am PT / 1:00 pm ET / 8:00 pm Israel Time

Much has been written about the academic legacy of Salo Baron as a result of 
his scholarship and research. A recent book from Columbia University Press 
broadens our perspective of his legacy, by reflecting on the role he played in 
reshaping Jewish studies in the United States from his perch in Morningside 
Heights. Collecting articles from numerous scholars to mark the 90th 
anniversary of Baron’s arrival at Columbia University, this book features 
analysis of his impact as a public intellectual, the creator of the first 
academic center to study Israel, and champion of libraries. Rebecca Kobrin and 
Michelle Chesner will discuss the recent book and how it informs Baron’s 
important impact on Columbia University and the world.

Rebecca Kobrin is the Russell and Bettina Knapp Associate Professor of American 
Jewish History at Columbia University, where she is also co-director of 
Columbia’s Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies. Her book Jewish Bialystok 
and Its Diaspora (2010) was awarded the Jordan Schnitzer prize. She is the 
editor of Chosen Capital: The Jewish Encounter with American Capitalism (2012) 
and is coeditor with Adam Teller of Purchasing Power: The Economics of Jewish 
History (2015). Her forthcoming book, A Credit to the Nation: East European 
Immigrant Bankers and American Finance, 1870–1930, will be published by Harvard 
University Press.

This session is sponsored by AJL’s RAS Division and is open to members and the 
public. All are welcome.

Re: [ha-Safran] Baruch Dayan Emet: Former AJL President, Barbara Leff

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

 I am so sorry to hear of Barbara Leff's passing. She was a great friend and 
mentor to me when I worked at the Ostrow Library at the University of Judaism 
in Los Angeles. Barbara provided me guidance when I served as the AJLSC 
President and I learned how to program events from Barbara when I served as the 
AJLSC VP for Programming. Barbara was a remarkable person and librarian. Very 
calm, patient, extremely knowledgeable, which she was always more than happy to 
share. I think of her fondly. May Barbara's memory be for a blessing.

Barbara was a strong and helpful supporter of the Elazar Classification System 
for Libraries of Judaica. I have retained much of the correspondence between us 
regarding the development and use of the System over the years. I would like to 
share with you an entry of hers in Hasafran (oct 12, 1995): 

“ Here is a brief anecdote to illustrate: I converted my library collection to 
Elazar more than 25 years ago because my mentor, Dorothy Schroeder (of blessed 
memory), considered it the best for synagogue libraries. My rabbi confirmed 
this not long after that, when he came into our library to browse. I asked him 
if I could show him around and he said, "What for? Everything is here -- just 
the way I think about Judaism -- it's all in order for me!" I've never 
forgotten his response, and I've found again and again that materials arranged 
by Elazar are logically 'in order.'

Another reason I like Elazar is because I learned an overview of Judaism 
through the Elazar scheme (as a library volunteer with limited library 
knowledge for 10 years prior to getting my masters). Elazar pulls the Judaica 
body of knowledge together in its outlines and explanations. Elazar's logical 
sequences and orderliness allows a non-schooled library person to acquire a 
valuable understanding of Judaism, and, as you are aware, many synagogues ask 
volunteers or librarians with minimal Judaica background to manage their 
libraries. Also, non-professional librarians could not possibly handle the many 
LC cataloging tools in order to catalog their books. Elazar is a single, slim 
volume, easy to handle and use, and indexed.”

May her memory be blessed

David Elazar

Rishon LeZion, Israel

Tuesday, March 22, 2020 at 12noon ET

Most of us catalog monographs, which is fairly straightforward.Manuscripts is a 
different story with each manuscript being unique. In today’sCataloging Forum, 
Dr. Zsófi Buda will lead our session in how she catalogsmanuscripts and the 
necessary tools she uses.

Zsófi Buda graduated in Art History, Hebrew Studies, andMedieval Studies, and 
obtained her PhD in 2012 at the Central EuropeanUniversity, Budapest. Her 
dissertation was entitled “Sacrifice and Redemptionin the Hamburg Miscellany: 
The Illustrations of a Fifteenth-century AshkenaziManuscript.” She created the 
catalogue descriptions of the Hebrew material forthe Online Catalogue of 
Illuminated Manuscripts at the British Library. Shealso worked as manuscript 
cataloguer in the Polonsky Foundation DigitizationProject at the Bodleian 
Library, and in the Hebrew Manuscripts DigitisationProject at the British 
Library. She was co-curator of the exhibition “HebrewManuscripts: Journeys of 
the Written Word” at the British Library (2020-2021).

 Here are verified sites that would interest this list regarding ways to help 
Ukrainian refugees, Jews and others, from a Los Angeles group called Jews

Many have asked for our suggestions of non-profit organizations aiding 
Ukrainians impacted by Russia's invasion.  While there are many outstanding 
organizations mobilizing to bring humanitarian aid and assistance to those 
wounded, displaced and otherwise impacted by the war, we are listing 
organizations below with whom our leadership team has personal experience.  

I.  To aide Ukrainian Jews, many of whom are elderly survivors of the 
holocaust, this Fund was established by the Jewish Federation of Los Angeles; 
100% of all monies collected are being distributed to 4 different Jewish 
organizations which are providing direct assistance to Ukraine's Jewish 
community. Donations are tax deductible.

2.  This organization, with whom we have direct contact, and whom our 
leadership team has worked with over the past many years, is headquartered in 
Poland and has created this Ukraine assistance fund which distributes money to 
14 grass roots organizations on the ground in Ukraine and Poland .  Donations 
made are not tax deductible in the US.  FYI, there are 4.5 zloty to the US 
dollar; $100 US= 450 zloty. 

3.  Direct Relief has established this special Ukraine fund and is working 
directly with Ukraine’s Ministry of Health and other partners in the region to 
provide requested medical aid, from oxygen concentrators to critical care 
medicines – while preparing to offer longer-term medical aid to people 
displaced or affected by the conflict.  Donations are tax-deductible.

4. HIAS, the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, is responding with HIAS emergency 
humanitarian assistance to those who are displaced.  A HIAS response team is in 
Poland  assisting Ukrainians — Jews and others — as they cross into Poland.  
Donations are tax-deductible.

Colleagues, if you know about *verified* ways to help, please add to this 
thread.  
I'll start with a library/DH initiative to preserve digital archives 
(sucho.org), of which a significant percentage on the current list have some 
Jewish aspect. 
Please especially share verified channels you've seen to help the people - 
lives are obviously the most important here.

The Association of Jewish Libraries expresses deep concern for and solidarity 
with the people of Ukraine. We are devastated over the loss of life and 
destruction of property and wish to offer support in any way we can to assist 
in this very difficult situation. There are many important Judaica collections 
in Ukraine, including in the state libraries, archives large and small, 
museums, and university collections in the hard-hit cities of Kharkov and Kyiv, 
as well as throughout the country. We are hoping and praying for the safety and 
care of the custodians of these collections, many of whom are friends and 
colleagues, and for their families and the broader Ukrainian nation. Please 
know that we stand with you in these trying times.

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

Dear Safranim/Safraniyot,
I am creating a Google form for personal libraries (based on the recent 
Hasafran thread). If you have a personal collection and are looking for a good 
home, let me know. I am keeping track and hopefully will a find a home for your 
collection.

Re: [ha-Safran] Personal libraries

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

 I was thinking of this. One approach is to have a webpage on the AJL website 
that is somewhat a Farmers' Market of sorts ... but with a few modifications, 
such as only titles and contact information would be provided, without images. 
Maintaining this page would require someone to oversee this. The titles and 
contact info would have to be provided for by the "seller".
Thanks,
All my best,Haim

librarians can state what subjects they are looking for, and potential donors 
can find the right libraries for their collections. It's hard to do it in

especially how to help the smaller collections looking to grow!

As someone who has both reviewed collections and donated one (about 1500 
volumes), I have a thought:       Those of us in academic libraries talk to our 
Judaica faculty. Where are their students being placed? Do those young scholars 
want to add to their colleges' libraries? There should be a market for Judaica 
around the country, to strengthen smaller departments and new Ph.D.'s in their 
work. It could benefit the field at large if we knew where the new programs 
are, and how we can help them grow and thrive.

[ha-Safran] AJL Classroom - Up coming course - Introduction to Elazar for Synagogue Libraries

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

Dear Safranim/Safraniyot,
AJL Classroom is proud to announce the new up coming course - Introduction to 
Elazar for Synagogue Libraries. Organizing a synagogue’s collection is crucial 
to maintaining a library rather than a “room full of books.” This three-session 
course will provide synagogue librarians and volunteers with tools to catalog 
and classify their Judaica, focusing on the Elazar Classification System, one 
option for smaller libraries. We’ll also share our experiences with cataloging 
and with automation systems and work together to tackle challenging 
classification questions.

Taught by Marcie Eskin

 Hi Karen,
There isn't a full-fledged course right now. In the mean time the Cataloging

grammar for Hebraica cataloging. Perhaps a full course can be developed out of 
this forum.

  Dear safranim, 
I want to let you know that I will retire from my position as the Metadata 
Librarian for Hebraica and Judaica at Stanford University Libraries during the 
mid- to late Spring, 2021. The past thirty-one years of the sharing of 
learning,  knowledge and professional practices among our community have been 
extraordinary. I am not sure if such collegiality and synergies exist among 
other library communities. 
So many of the professional relationships that I developed over this period 
have crossed over into personal friendships that will continue to last long 
after I officially leave. 
My warmest wishes, appreciation and thanks to the entire Association of Jewish 
Libraries for being a foundation of my professional growth and life.

 Dear Safranim,
First, I want to wish you all a happy and healthy New Year!! What are your best 
Yiddish words to describe 2020? I'm going with fakakte. (Replies welcome...best 
ones may/may not appear in editor's note). 
I also want to invite you all to consider writing for the News portion of News 
and Reviews. We crowdsource some of our best articles from you, our readership 
and community. Did something interesting happen at your library? In Jewish 
museums, archives, collections? Maybe something library related that is a great 
story? Why not share it with our readership? Articles can be brief or longer, 
as suits your topic. 
Why write for us? 1. Sharing is caring2. A publication credit for your 
resume/linkedin/CV!2. A warm fuzzy feeling of being a published writer 
How tos: 1. Email me (not reply all) and pitch a topic...2. We will work with 
your timeline 3. When it's published, let your mom know so she can humble brag 
Thanks and happy new year to all, Sally

Re: [ha-Safran] Hanukkah party via Zoom

 Hi Donnie,
One way would be through the use of the Zoom break-out rooms. Place those who 
get the clues in one room and the rest stay behind. This one way I can think of.

Hi all,
Based on Jacob Nadal's talk a few weeks ago, he gave another, similar talk 
today (September 2) at LC. In case you missed his talk at the AJL roundtable 
here is the website concerning the REALM Project. Very useful site especially 
since many of us handle books in library world.

 Hello,
I own a copy of the 1948 edition of the 10 volume Universal Jewish 
Encyclopedia (UJE).  Volume 9 includes a lengthy entry on "Soldier, Jew 
As" beginning on page 594.  Unfortunately, the version I have includes a 
misprint, and is MISSING pages 633-634 of volume 9, which includes the 
very end of the entry for Soldiers, and presumably has a bibliography 
for the entry.  Does anyone have a Volume 9 of the UJE that includes 
pages 633-634?  Or did every edition include the same misprint?  If 
anyone actually has those pages in their volume 9, I would love to get a 
copy.

Thank you very much,

Congratulations to all the authors(!) and thanks to the anonymous reviewers and

Re: [ha-Safran] Heidi Rabinowitz presents at ALA Annual

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

 I "attended" ALA this year. Part of the time I had to work out a schedule 
around AJL. For the most part, I liked the presentations. I found them no less 
no more inspiring then last year. I do miss the in-person sessions, but was 
grateful for this opportunity. Unfortunately I missed Heidi's session, as I was 
on my to LC.

 I actually found ALA Virtual a mostly pretty good conference.  True, I did 
find some of the speakers uninspiring, but I think that’s the case with any 
such event.

I had no trouble getting into the live or on-demand sessions.  If a session was 
live, it usually became available in on-demand format after it was over.  I did 
find a few of those programs only became available many hours or a day 
afterward, but was able to check back to view again or catch parts that I 
missed of the sessions that interested me.  There were a number of 
engaging⁠—and sometimes controversial⁠—programs that I enjoyed.  Of course, 
Heidi’s session, was absolutely a highlight.Wednesday, June 24Although, like 
other keynote speakers, I found the closing session featuring Natalie Portman, 
way too brief, I still enjoyed certain aspects of it including her discussion 
of some of the changes in the depictions of the critters in the stories in her 
debut children’s picture book, Natalie Portman’s Fables.  And she was 
interviewed by Betsy Bird, Collection Development Manager, Evanston Public 
Library, who will be speaking at AJL Digital on Thursday on “Reviewing and 
Evaluating Picture Books.”

In any case, I, too, would like to hear what others who took part in any part 
of the online ALA conference thought.
See you all tomorrow (by the time this gets “published,” it will be tomorrow 
here in the Eastern Time Zone, and probably everywhere else, too).

agree with you, Emily, and really appreciate all the effort that you put into 
getting Heidi, and thus AJL, onto the ALA Ethnic and Multicultural Information 
Exchange Round Table session, “EMIERT Chair’s Program Promoting Multicultural 
Library Services in Virtual Spaces,” which took place this morning at ALA 
Virtual.
All three participants, Heidi; K.C. Boyd, Library Media Specialist at Jefferson 
Academy in the Washington, DC Public School system;  and Andrea Jamison, 
Librarian and Lecturer at Valparaiso University (Indiana) and 
Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect of EMIERT, articulated their jobs, patron base, 
collections, charges, and challenges really well.  While representing “just” 
two ethnic communities (on the surface), Jewish and African-American, they 
demonstrated the diversity and multiculturalism of both and how meaningful 
their work and the resources that they highlighted are. What they do is 
beneficial to all of their users, internal and external.  Andrea, while serving 
as the moderator, contributed much to the discussion, not only with her 
questions but contributions to the conversation.  A really good session.
And Heidi proved once again why she is not only a Jewish kidlit meyven, but so 
knowledgeable way beyond her “bailiwick!”
Great job!  Yasher-koyekh and kol ha-kavod on your fabulous presentation, 
Heidi, and Emily for making sure it happened!
See you all next week!

Re: [ha-Safran] AJL STATEMENT ON RECENT EVENTS AT YIVO

 Very powerful statement, Dina.  Thank you.

 The Association of Jewish Libraries is dismayed by the decision of the YIVO 
Institute for Jewish Research to fire its librarians.

The difficulty of funding is one that we feel deeply within the world of 
libraries and archives, with few funders and many institutions applying for the 
same funding. We would caution, however, that replacing expert librarians with 
non-librarians also has results that could impact an institution in the long 
run. There are the obvious concerns of divvying up the jobs of four employees 
among employees that already have full-time responsibilities. More than that, 
though, subject librarians are trained in the nuances of a particular area of 
research. The YIVO librarians had an expertise in Yiddish bibliography that, 
like YIVO’s Yiddish book collection, is unsurpassed, and the loss of their 
curatorial expertise is a loss for all YIVO users and for the collection.

Librarians often have connections to colleagues in their area at other 
institutions, and can connect researchers with relevant resources around the 
world. This was made exceptionally clear through the joint partnership of the 
YIVO librarians with the National Library of Lithuania to integrate discovery 
for books in both collections. We certainly hope that the decision to terminate 
their librarians was a temporary move on YIVO’s part, and we look forward to 
hearing about how this august institution will maintain its reputation and 
unique library collections in the coming weeks and months. YIVO's decision to 
remove all Library staff is also a decision to remove themselves from the 
larger active Judaica library community. As the many responses from across the 
world have already shown in just a few days, we already see the loss to the 
entire Judaica library and scholarly communities.

As the leading authority on Judaic Librarianship, AJL stands with the community 
in encouraging YIVO to reinstate the librarians to continue their critical work.
Read the statement here and please share widely.

Re: [ha-Safran] Judaica Librarianship off to a new start

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

 Dear Racheli,
Thank you for the update. You are doing a wonderful job as editor of the 
journal.

Dear AJL members, 

 

I have a short apology and a long explanation for you regarding the delayed 
publication of Judaica Librarianship’s new issue (#21).

 

As you know, producing AJL’s scholarly journal is based on voluntary work. In 
2018, I was first grappling with a new day job position and then went on a 
semester-long sabbatical. In 2019, I had a lot of post-sabbatical catch-up to 
do and while working on the content of issue #21, I was also engaged in a 
search for a new hosting service for the journal.

 

Since we transferred JL to electronic publishing in 2013, we have hosted the 
journal content on the Digital Commons platform, owned and operated by bepress, 
a company that was established by academics to promote open access publishing 
and library repository solutions. We teamed up with bepress because they 
accommodated our needs, including the management of our delayed access 
publishing model (a 12-months exclusive access for AJL members) – but that came 
with a cost. In addition to the big-ticket annual fee, as all bepress costumers 
we learned from the media in early August 2017, that the company was purchased 
by Elsevier, one of the most aggressive commercial publishers in scholarly 
publishing  (see the Scholarly Kitchen post: 
https://scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2017/08/02/elsevier-acquires-bepress/). 
Many of bepress customers moved away from Digital Commons since then and JL 
Editorial Board agreed that we should do so, too as AJL should not contribute 
to the for-profit publisher. Due to the reasons stated above I was not able to 
dedicate much time for this project until 2019, but now I am happy to report 
that we found a new hosting service for JL. The journal will move to its new 
home in a few weeks, after we migrate its structure, metadata, and articles; 
and the new issue will be published on the new platform.

 

This move constitutes a major saving for AJL and would contribute to the 
sustainability of our organization. Furthermore, as many scholarly journals 
have done, I am happy to announce that JL Editorial Board and AJL Council 
unanimously approved my proposal to move the journal to complete open access 
publishing.* This initiative would expand the reach of JL to global readership 
even further than it did so far: Since the journal moved to electronic 
publishing, the 250 articles posted online were downloaded almost 39,000 
times(!) and in 2019 alone, almost 7,500 downloads were recorded. Advancing to 
open access publishing is not only the right thing to do, as declared by an AJL 
Council member, but it also epitomizes the AJL Mission: 

 

The Association of Jewish Libraries is an international professional 
organization that fosters access to information and research in all forms of 
media relating to all things Jewish. The Association promotes Jewish literacy 
and scholarship and provides a community for peer support and professional 
development.

 

I thank the JL Editorial Board, and AJL Council and Board for their strong and 
enthusiastic support and look for the continued support of AJL members in AJL 
and its scholarly journal. Please let me know if you have any questions. 

 

Stay tuned for the new issue and new platform announcement!

 

Happy New Year, 

Rachel

Re: [ha-Safran] Leah Adler

[Haim A Gottschalk via Hasafran]

 This is very sad news. Barukh Dayam ha-Emet.
Leah gave me first library job. At the end of my first year at YU I interviewed 
for a student position managing the front desk at the Gottseman library. Leah 
offered me the job that summer and I started at the start of my second year. I 
held this position for 6 years.
I always looked forward to seeing Leah at AJL. We reconnected and shared 
memories. A wonderful person and a great leader. I will miss her very much. May 
Leah's memory be for a blessing.

  Dear colleagues,
I'm very sad to report that Leah Adler, Head Librarian of Hebraica-Judaica at 
Yeshiva University, died this weekend after an illness that she managed quietly 
and successfully until recently.  The funeral will be in Israel, and the flight 
to Israel is today.  As plans for a memorial at the Gottesman Library of 
Hebraica-Judaica materialize, we'll send out a notice.  
Throughout her illness, rather than talk about herself and her physical 
discomfort, Leah expressed concern for others--about the effect of her absence 
on their work loads.  In the workplace, Leah was always disarmingly candid and 
honest; she never hesitated to bring up important issues, regardless of how 
challenging those issues were.  
After decades of service, Leah seems inseparable from the history of Yeshiva 
University Libraries.  We all share in mourning her loss.  Let us all support 
one another as we grieve.

 Hi Safranim,    After almost 20 terrific 
years as librarian at Congregation B'nai Israel of Boca Raton, I am off on a 
new adventure. I'll be joining the PJ Library team at their head office in 
Agawam, MA. I start at the beginning of October, and I’ll be working on book 
selection and growing content. I hope to stay closely involved with AJL and I 
expect to see you all in Boston next year!    If you are interested in a truly 
amazing synagogue children’s librarian position in Boca, let me know! A job 
description will be posted soon. FYI, when I first took on the synagogue job I 
had a public librarian background and no formal Judaica experience and it 
worked out fine. So if you have public youth services friends seeking 
employment, this may be a good opportunity for them.    Heidi Rabinowitz

grandfather came to this country and set up the business in the early 1900s.  
They even have a file of letters, invoices and other ephemera dealing with the

NY could take senior  Biegeleisen’s oral history and video it.  The firm has 
been such a part of the Judaica book scene, it would be a shame to miss this

wonderful thing to have done.

The programs are printed, the bags are about to be packed, the schedule is 
set...here are some links that might be useful for your trip to the conference.
1. Trip Advisor 
(https://www.tripadvisor.com/Travel-g60763-c170529/New-York-City:New-York:General.Tips.On.Nyc.Trip.html)
 has a great listing of "tips and tricks" to navigate the city, including 
helpful pieces of advice (DON'T BEND THE METROCARD!).  They also have a top ten 
list: 
https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tripadvisor.com%2FAttractions-g60763-Activities-New_York_City_New_York.html%23ATTRACTION_SORT_WRAPPER=ATNLF7d-JAr7DrXjhJUlDV0ptQsOukzSftvKnsTgDdQ1faA0EPiJobOMm3c9FLQxa4E_z2p43Xm86gNhKi2GGBgIqlcvsGe3_xltGOq8Fn6rKxF_52Jx4qGPkMN-h9CRuObvlLY
2. If you're interested in amazing kosher pizza, try Bravo's Pizza on 37th and 
Broadway (http://www.bravokosherpizza.com). [This is my personal preference; 
others might chime in and disagree!]
3. Time Out New York (https://www.timeout.com/newyork) is a fantastic resource 
for things to do and places to go.
4. Want to go to a show at the last minute?  Download the todaytix app to see 
what's available.   Those of you who bought tickets to the Tony-winning 
Indecent are the lucky ones!  The show is closing at the end of June, so if 
you're still interested in going, you might want to hurry up and see if there 
are any left!
5. The High Line (http://www.thehighline.org/), a former railroad line that was 
transformed into a park, is a great place to visit between the hotel and HUC. 
It runs from Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District to West 34th Street, 
between 10th and 12th Avenues.
6. Chelsea Market (http://www.chelseamarket.com/) is another fun place to visit 
for an incredible taste of the city's gastronomic diversity.
7. But what about BOOKS?  The Strand Bookstore (http://www.strandbooks.com/), 
with its "18 miles of books" is located just a few blocks up from HUC at the 
corner of 12th and Broadway.  They have a rare book section as well.  A warning 
- it is VERY difficult to leave this store without purchasing anything.
8. The New York Public Library's grand mid-Manhattan building is located at 
42nd St. and 6th Avenue (https://www.nypl.org/).  If you go, be sure to stop in 
at the Jewish Division on the main floor!
Do you have any questions about your visit?  Reply here, and our local team 
(and those who are like locals) would be happy to help!
New Yorkers (or NY lovers) what else is not to be missed?
See you very soon!

Re: [ha-Safran] SSC Sessions at the conference

[Haim A Gottschalk]

I had in mind SSC for my session on understanding what books and materials can 
be buried.

 Subject: [ha-Safran] SSC Sessions at the conference
   
Dear Safranim,
It has come to my attention that there are SSC members who were disappointed by 
the perceived lack of SSC sessions at the upcoming AJL conference in New York.  
I would like to correct this misconception, especially since members of the SSC 
worked particularly hard to provide exceptional programming for this group 
(including Kathy Bloomfield, Susan Kusel, and Heidi Rabinowitz and others).  
Exactly half of the sessions (all listed in slots C and D in the program) are 
geared toward SSC.  
I know that the detailed conference information has not been made public yet, 
and so I will cite some specific examples below:   
   - More Than Just One Person’s Opinion: What Makes Good Book Criticism? (This 
session, organized by Elissa Gershowitz, includes interviews with Marjorie 
Ingall and Arthur Levine of Arthur A. Levine books)   

   - Inspire new books: how librarians can make a difference - this includes 
discussions with Jewish book authors about recent publications (Tammar Stein, 
Anne Dublin, Jacqueline Jules, Barbara Bietz and Allison & Wayne Marks)   

   - Accreditation and Advocacy (60 minutes with Rachail Kurtz on how to 
achieve AJL accreditation, followed by Kathy Bloomfield on "Advocating for your 
Library: What your Board Wants to Know"   

   - Beth Braunstein will be giving a 60 minute session on "Jewish Values in 
Secular Literature."
   - The Holocaust Education session is SSC minded: it includes discussion of 
certification of Holocaust educators with Susan Dubin, building communities 
around Holocaust study; and a focus on Holocaust children's literature
   - Collaboration in building public (i.e. synagogue, center) Jewish libraries 
collections (including the Vilnius Jewish Public Library, which is equivalent 
to a Center library)
   - Lisa Silverman and Debbie Feder will speak about their new respective 
community and school libraries, and what went into building them
   - An incredible digital session focuses on digital tools in school 
libraries; education technology, and digital communites - all very much SSC 
related.
And we will have a VERY special guest speaker at the first meal, presenting her 
upcoming graphic novel of her life story (geared toward teens, but of definite 
interest to synagogue and center librarians as well as schools).  Details are 
still being finalized on that one, so I can't say more yet!
I'm sure I left some items out, so I'll ask the programming committee 
(especially SSC members) to please chime in - but this is definitely a 
conference NOT TO BE MISSED.
My best,Michelle

Sometimes you find the "All of the Kind Family" books in unlikely places.
This week's back-page column in the Jweekly of Northern California -- 
Jweekly.com -- is all about how the "Kind family" should be role models for 
children.

 As many of you may have already heard, I will be retiring from my position as 
Dean of Libraries at Yeshiva University at the end of this academic year. 

 My experience at Yeshiva has been an extremely rewarding professional journey; 
one from which I derived a great deal of personal satisfaction.  Along with a 
wonderful group of librarians and support personnel, I had the opportunity to 
move the YU libraries forward and to provide the student and faculty community 
with the best that we could offer.  I have had the pleasure of working with 
many of you at AJL in various capacities and I expect I will continue to be 
involved in the years to come. 
A committee has been formed to search for my replacement.   For information see

[ha-Safran] how to romanize a shva merachef

[Haim A Gottschalk]

Dear Safranim,

I am cataloging a Hebrew book hat has the word בכלל in the title.  The ב takes 
a hirik and the כ keeps the shva.  This shva becomes a shva merachef. My 
question is:  in romanizing this word should it be bikhlal or bi-khelal?  My 
inclination is towards the former, since I've been taught that the shva 
merachef is not a real (vocalized) shva.

Thank you and Hodsh tov,
Haim

Dear Safranim,
 
In my small synagogue library a patron asked a question regarding how to cite 
the thick literary Hebrew journal Hatekufah, published by A. Stybl, which in 
1918 appeared 3 or 4 times.  The cover has per volume sefer # (sefer rishon, 
bet...).  In citing an article from this journal, according to the Chicago 
Manual of Style, how would you render sefer?  As an issue number, volume, or 
some other way.

I just read of the passing away of Dan Rettenberg.  He was a scholar and a 
gentleman - a true mensch.  Dan not only helped me on my MLS assignments, but 
also introduced me to the wonderful bibliographic world of rare Judaica with 
passion and warmth.  He will be missed.  May his family be comforted among 
family and friends.

Shalom Safranim/ot,

in response to my own request, this morning I just acquired The Study of

Suggestions, anyone?


I found The Kite Runner to be a book about redemption and atonement.

[ha-Safran] Looking for a list

[Haim A Gottschalk]

Dear Safranim,

I am doing a recon project at the library of my synagogue. This project will 
also involve reclassifying the books and doing an evaluation of the collection 
to determine the library's strengths and weaknesses.  Currently, I am doing an 
evaluation of only the rabbinic collection.  I would like to build up the 
library's core rabbinic collection.  My question is:  Even though I have an 
idea of what the core rabbinic collection ought to look like (based on my 
experience of working in Judaic collections and personal learning) and could 
develop and ad hoc list, I would like to know if a list of core rabbinic titles 
has ever been published?

Thank you,
Haim

[ha-Safran] Looking for a tale

[Haim A Gottschalk]

Dear Safranim ve-Safraniyot,

I am looking for Yiddish tale, perhaps a ma'aseh, concerning the topic of 
gratitude. Specifically, being grateful for the help one received from another 
in be able to accomplish a task.  Does anyone know of such a tale?  I am 
familiar of the Gemara in Berakhot 58a that has a blessing thanking God for 
creating all these individuals to serve me.  


Kol tuv,
Haim

Dear Marsha,

How about the National Yiddish Book Center?  I am sure they will take it.

[ha-Safran] rare book bibliography

[Haim A Gottschalk]

I am looking for a bibliography for early Hebrew printing something that is 
similar to Brunet's Manuel de Librarie et de l'Amateur de Livres. I have seen 
Shunami's Bibliography and I also BSA's Hebrew Incunabula of America(1940). Is 
there a work that provides a global census as well as/or an auction history of 
early Hebrew printing? And is there a bibliography that provides collation 
formula for such works?
 
Thank you so much,
Haim A Gottschalk
