I just sent the suggestions I've received for my Jewish diversity
booklist to Hasafran, but I forgot that I wanted to ask you all one
more thing. I'm finding plenty of picture books, YA books, and adult
books, but fewer chapter books for children that feature diverse
Jews. I'm sure there are pl

Library of Congress headings have become pretty much the standard in the

Dear Hasafranim,
In my one room library, I have back issues of at least 15 different

American Jewish Archives, etc), some going back to the 70s & 80s.
Absolutely NO ONE requests them!
I've looked on line and many of these are avai

The librarian in question is Jewish, but not a Judaica librarian.
I don't remember seeing the book title on Daniel's list of books for
review or reading the review in the AJL Newsletter, though I see that
someone's added it to the AJL's virtual bookshelf at librarything -

I think the book Rose is thinking of is "Always an Olivia" by
Carolivia Herron (Kar-Ben, 2007). It's based on the story of the
author's ancestor, Sarah. We had Carolivia Herron at the Columbus
Jewish Bookfair in 2007 and she was fantastic!
