[ha-Safran] Tech for hybrid programs
Hello Everyone, The Meyers Library at KI is looking to upgrade some of its technology to facilitate hybrid programming. Now, we are cobbling together a chain of (sometimes, truly comical) older pre-existing tech to present these programs. But there has to be a better way! My Executive Director has looked around a bit and has suggested these two possibilities: Neat Bar https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://neat.no/bar-pro/__;!!KGKeukY!xMKt61h8nbQKmFgJNjmoRJVDGV_4fVNTS7AuP1CrVOipFonIdaybsWTdB_FLb0MNV2KMqdAV6Ip2JIuRy_lpFAINBQ$ Owl and Owl Bar https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://owllabs.com/__;!!KGKeukY!xMKt61h8nbQKmFgJNjmoRJVDGV_4fVNTS7AuP1CrVOipFonIdaybsWTdB_FLb0MNV2KMqdAV6Ip2JIuRy_nvomtVxw$ What tech set-ups are you all using? Is there one or two pieces of equipment—available at a reasonable price—that we can purchase that would enable us to project movies or stream content as well as speakers’ PowerPoint presentations to a hybrid audience? Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

[ha-Safran] Looking for a book of ethical questions for high school students
Hello Safranim and Safranot, KI is a Reform synagogue in the Philadelphia suburbs. We have a supplemental Hebrew High School. The principal and teachers are looking for a book (or books) on Ethics and of ethical questions and issues for the High School students to discuss. I do, of course, know of Pirkei Avot. But I am looking for more and other book(s) geared to the age group. Todah Rabah, in advance.

[ha-Safran] Sale of Card Catalog Drawer Units
Shalom Safranim, With enthusiasm (and also with a touch of trepidation), I have decided to phase out our physical card catalog. The information is all computerized, with regular on-site and off-site backups, etc. The lovely wooden card catalog drawer units are now taking up space that might better be used for more book shelves. We are incorporating a couple of new collections of books and the shelving units would be put to good use. We have three units of 5 x 5 drawers, two of them have pull-out shelves between the second and third row of drawers. The drawer units sit on wooden tables to lift them up off the floor. I can send pictures, if that would be helpful. I want to offer them for sale. But I don’t know what would be a good price for them? Someone suggested that a furniture salvage company might take them. But as I said, I would prefer to be able to sell them, if I can, rather than donate them. I am not suggesting that any of the Safranim would want to buy them. But, am I correct in my hope that someone or someplace would be interested in buying them? What have other folks done with their drawer units? What price do you think I might expect to get for them? I thank you in advance for your help. *Shanah tovah u’metuka!* Linda Roth Director of Library Services Meyers Library Reform Congregation Keneseth Israel 8339 Old York Road Elkins Park, PA 19027 215-887-8700 libr...@kenesethisrael.org Pronouns: she/her/hers __ Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) == Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: Hasafran@lists.osu.edu To join Ha-Safran, update or change your subscription, etc. - click here: https://lists.osu.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran Questions, problems, complaints, compliments send to: galro...@osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.osu.edu/maillist.html Earlier Listserver: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.osu.edu/maillist.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org -- Hasafran mailing list Hasafran@lists.osu.edu https://lists.osu.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran
[ha-Safran] Looking to purchase a DVD: A Journey of Spirit, Debbie Friedman
Hello people of HaSafran, This is my first query/listing for this wonderful listserve. I am looking to purchase (if it is not too expensive...) a copy of the DVD: A Journey of Spirit: A New Documentary from Ann Coppel. copyright 2003/2006 Ann Coppel Productions, LLC Color DVD/approx. 75 minutes A Journey of Spirit is a documentary that tells the story of the remarkable singer, songwriter and guitarist Debbie Friedman. One of the preeminent women in contemporary Jewish culture, Debbie has integrated contemporary melody with Jewish liturgy to transform Jewish sacred music, making the text accessible to a large and diverse audience. A Journey of Spirit explores the tremendous power this artist and leader has to promote spirituality, healing, and community. This 75-minute documentary explores the transformation of liberal Jewish worship, the growth of the new profession of Jewish singer/songwriter, and humanity’s need for healing. Viewers are treated to a lively and heartfelt exchange as A Journey of Spirit places the debate about contemporary versus traditional prayer music squarely on the table. I have called and left a message at Ann Coppel Productions and I am awaiting a response. I have not found any venue through which to purchase this DVD. Can anyone on this list help me with finding this? Thank you in advance.
