Re: [ha-Safran] 2024 Fanny Goldstein Award

[Ellen Share via Hasafran]

Nobody could be more deserving of this prestigious award than Gail Shirazi.  
The energy, dedication, time and commitment that she puts forth as a Judaica 
librarian cannot be matched.  In addition, her creativity and vision by 
planning programs, networking, and reaching out to the public serves as a role 
model for other librarians.  She brings a visionary aspect to Judaica 
librarianship which keeps the field of librarianship current and vital in this 
present time.  Librarianship is not static, and Gail exemplifies a librarian 
with vision and foresight.
On behalf of the Capital Area Chapter of the Association of Jewish Libraries, I 
wish Gail many more years ahead as she continues to make contributions to 
Capital Area Chapter and other institutions.   May she continue to be energetic 
and healthy.   May Gail and her entire family be blessed with shalom.
Ellen Share
President
Capital Area Chapter of the Association of Jewish Libraries

Dear AJL members,



I am thrilled to announce that Gail Shirazi is the 2024 Fanny Goldstein Merit 
Award Winner.



Serving 47 years at the Library of Congress, Gail has contributed immensely to 
our community of Jewish libraries through her far-reaching collection 
development efforts at LC and across other libraries, by arranging numerous 
public programs in different venues, by connecting AJL members with other 
colleagues, and by serving on several AJL annual conference and programming 
committees. Gail’s boundless advocacy and passion are unforgettable, and her 
extraordinary comradery is an inspiration to us all. Please see the attached PR 
for more information.



Congratulations, Gail! We are so proud of you!!!



I thank my FGA committee members for their help in selecting such a deserving 
AJL member for this prestigious award: Daniel Scheide and Aviva Rosenberg.

Re: [ha-Safran] 2024 Fanny Goldstein Award

[Elliot H. Gertel via Hasafran]

Dear Gail,

Mazel-tov, *kol ha-kavod,* and *yasher-koyekh* on being selected the 2024
Fanny Goldstein Merit Award recipient.  As stated in the message below by
2024 FGMA Chair and 2023 FGMA recipient, Rachel Leket-Mor, you are a most
worthy winner of this award.  Your many years of contributions to, and hard
work in, AJL and to promote Judaica and general librarianship, Judaica in
general and, of course, to your longtime institution, LC, are admirable.
In recent years, of particular note, is your hard work on the AJL
Conference Support Committee, along with Lenore Bell.

It's been a pleasure knowing you during the three and a half decades of our
membership in AJL.  I still recall meeting you at my first AJL annual
conference more than 30 years ago—hard to believe all that time has
passed!—and look forward to seeing you again in San Diego in June.

Congratulations and best wishes always,
Elliot

Gail Shirazi has been a force of nature in Judaic Librarianship for her
entire career. AJL would not be what it is today without her dedication and
enthusiasm
and I am thrilled she is finally receiving the recognition she deserves.

colleagues, and by serving on several AJL annual conference and programming 
committees. Gail’s boundless advocacy and passion are unforgettable, and her
