Alibris is one of my all-time favorite sites for locating out-of-print
books! They currrently have several of the All of a Kind books. This site
exists in two forms, "Alibris for libraries", plus their regular website
for the general public.

Hello Michelle:
Even though this title has been fully digitized at the Yiddish Book Center
(see http://www.yiddishbookcenter.org/books/search), there are times, as an
author, when I prefer to do my research with hands-on paper sources.
And so, my inclination would be to construct this kind of enclo
Here is another self-promotion! This book may be especially appealing to
the Harry Potter crowd.
In "A Handful of Spells" (Savvy Press 2014, 9781939113283), Caitlin Leo
struggles to find her place in a world in between Deaf and Hearing, Jewish
and gentile ... and magical and "Plod".

and really understands how to transmit a "different" point of view to a
mainstream audience. She was of enormous help in making my Deaf-themed
first novel presentable enough to become published; she makes you work

PS:
do not let the "kids" part of Leslea's web address throw you -- she is most

I'm currently attending a 3-part ALA-sponsored webinar that is actually

within the "Harry Potter" genre, and it does have a scene where the heroine
realizes just how easily Jewish holidays can get swamped by mainstream
culture, but her Jewishness isn't really driving the plot.

Dear Andrea and members of HaSafran:
To be devil's advocate, we've just digitized a DVD because its contents
were wanted by a patron, there was no DVD release, and there was also no
library-friendly or non-paywalled digital release available.
So to me, it would depend on content, as VHS are known t

does anyone besides me remember a book called "Letters & pictures from the

HaSafran back when, and I'm hoping to obtain a copy f
