Re: [ha-Safran] 2015 Fanny Goldstein Merit Award
Mazel tov, Joy! It's wonderful to see your years of dedicated work and multifarious contributions to AJL honored in this way. Fanny would be proud!

A justification for Joy’s award is presented below. Please join the Committee in congratulating Joy! All my best, Aaron T. Justification for the Nomination of Joy Kingsolver as the 2015 Fanny Goldstein Merit Award Recipient The Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) Awards Committee is delighted to award the Fannie Goldstein Merit Award to Joy Kingsolver, the Association’s longtime archivist and parliamentarian. As archivist, Joy has carefully assembled and organized the crucial documents of the Association’s history, including minutes of meetings, photographs, conference papers, and ensured their safekeeping for posterity. As parliamentarian at numerous AJL meetings, she has displayed her expertise in the rules of order and guided participants on proper procedures to ensure that the appropriate rules are followed fairly and that multiple voices are heard. Joy has also played a similar role in the many Board and Council debates and votes that have taken place via e-mail. Words like “ensure” and “make sure” are crucial in understanding the importance of Joy’s contributions. All too often, those who work to allow others to shine are overlooked. Joy has performed her challenging roles with her characteristic understatement, modesty, professionalism, and grace. In this the year of AJL’s Jubilee conference, the AJL Awards Committee feels that it is especially fitting to honor a member whose work helps us better understand our own history as Hebraica and Judaica archivists and librarians, keepers of the Jewish book and of Jewish papers, and helps provide access to that history for future generations of librarians and scholars. The world of AJL and our profession more broadly will be better understood thanks in no small measure to the tireless efforts of Joy Kingsolver. Joy, we thank you for your work and we honor your achievements!

[ha-Safran] Poet needed
Greetings, Safaranim ~ Does anyone know of any poets that are especially popular with young kids and might consider visiting our Beth Am Day School? The Day School has begun a marvelous new program of a School-wide Enrichment Day. Since April is Poetry Month, the organizer of this event would like to bring in a poet - preferably someone who's got a good sense of humor. This program will take place the end of April and there is a limited budget for covering the expense. So, if you know of someone who will bring the gift of poetry to help our students celebrate, if you have had the experience of bringing a poet to your school, please let us know. Thank you so much, Etta and Danielle Danielle Winter Library/Media Specialist The Janet zl and Richard Yulman Campus 5950 N.

[ha-Safran] Hebrew Cataloging RDA now available online
I would like to announce that Hebraica Cataloging RDA: a Guide to ALA/LC Romanization and Descriptive Cataloging is now available. This online resource supplements and updates Hebraica Cataloging (Paul Maher) that appeared in 1987. This new resource aims to serve as a published guide to the romanization and descriptive cataloging of Hebraica materials in RDA by the Library of Congress and the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC). This resource was created by Joan Biella (formerly of LC), Benjamin Fryser (LC), and Heidi Lerner (Stanford Libraries) and is available at the AJL RAS Cataloging Committee Wiki: http://rascat.pbworks.com/w/page/7836007/FrontPage This resource has been several years in the making and incorporates many comments made on the first draft. A second part containing annotated examples taken from a summer 2013 workshop-style e-forum for Hebraica cataloguers (developed to as a platform for discussing issues in RDA cataloging particular to Hebrew and Yiddish materials) will follow in th spring or summer of 2015.
