Dear hasafranim,
I'm looking at grants and, thinking big, am wondering about possible Jewish "e"
resources for small Jewish libraries. I know they're an expensive proposition
(and somewhat limited), but if this grant works out, something might be
possible. Where can I find current information
Dear Hasafranim,
A patron recommended a new LGBTQ children's book for Pesach called The Last
Place You Look by Wallace Skelton, published by Flamingo Rampant, a new press.
Aside from the pub. website, the only place it's listed is on Goodreads The
Last Place You Look. It's a little tough to

Dear Hasafranim,
Does anyone have any of the Promised Land Diaries, published by Baker
Publishing Group? I came across them on Amazon and despite the Christian
publisher, they look innocuous enough, but you never know. Would they be OK for
a Conservative shul? Here are some examples:
Dear Hasafranim,
I am considering reaching out to Jewish cookbook authors (I have not as yet
done so) about speaking at an author event for our synagogue, but if I find
someone, I am uncertain of how to structure it. Has anyone ever had a cookbook
author actually demonstrate a recipe for a
Dear Hasafranim,
A patron asked me about a children's book he grew up with that he'd love to
have for fun. Unfortunately, he can't remember the name, but here are some
clues:
1) The book was published in the 50s or 60s, with the usual 2-3 tone
illustrations of that period.
2) The title might
Dear Hasafranim,
I need to fill some holes in my collection, particularly in Apocrypha. All we
have are books from the 30s-50s from a Christian perspective, using the King
James translations.
Are there any collections you can think of from a Jewish perspective, with more
modern translations?

Dear Hasafranim,
The president of our congregation recently received a letter from the son of a
now deceased congregant who would like to donate a set of Steinsaltz English
Talmud. I don't know anything more about the set and we can only contact him by
snail mail.
In the meantime, I'm trying
Dear Hasafranim,
A couple years ago, my library was in the middle of a budget crises, i.e. the
book budget was slashed in half, periodicals were eliminated, and my salary
didn't fare too well either.
Well, there's a new sheriff in town and it's time to submit new proposed
budgets. I'd like to
Dear Hasafranim,
I just came along a grey area that makes me want to rethink a few things about
classifying YA historical fiction, specifically biographical fiction. Someone
donated this older book, Bar Kochba, by Amram Whiteman. I have very little on
the period for kids, so I thought why not.
