A huge thank you to everyone who sent me the articles I requested a
couple of weeks ago. I was able to get them to my Head of School
despite having limited internet access in Israel, and it was a huge

Israel was amazing it was a very odd first-timers trip
Two people asked me to report on my Paris library visits. They have
been more wonderful than I could have imagined. First, let me say
that they all share a common catalog, using Aleph from Ex Libris
called Rachel:http://www.rachelnet.net/rachelnet/index.htm. You can
search their catalogs
