Dear friends, Our planning committee is working around the clock getting ready to welcome you to Cambridge! We want to mention one tzedakah opportunity that may influence how you pack:
We will be collecting books to send to the Jewish libraries and schools damaged by Hurricane Katrina. A container will be available in the registration area. Our colleagues in Louisiana/Mississippi ask only that the books be titles published in the last two years, and in good condition, as these are the works that have the most value for them. Also, please tell your Boston area friends that our exhibit area will be open to the public all three days. The hours are posted on the AJL website. And, finally, thanks to Sheryl Stahl and Heidi Estrin, we have a blog! Check it out for daily updates and chatty tid-bits. We are so cutting edge in AJL! <http://jewishlibrariesconf06.blogspot.com/>http://jewishlibrariesconf06.blogspot.com/ N'siah tovah, to each of you! See you soon!
