I am pleased to announce that the Weine classification scheme documents are now available for free download to AJL members only on the AJL website. Weine is the classification and subject heading scheme developed in the 1960's by our late colleague Mae Weine for primarily small Judaic libraries, under 10,000 volumes. It is used by many AJL members. The documents are in Word format so that individuals may easily modify them to suit their own library's needs.
Non-AJL members and others wishing to purchase the print versions may still do so using the AJL Publications order form, also available on the AJL web site at: <http://www.jewishlibraries.org/ajlweb/publications/publications_order_form.pdf>http://www.jewishlibraries.org/ajlweb/publications/publications_order_form.pdf In addition to the documents you will find a link on the same page to the Weine Users Discussion Group, hosted by Google. A Weine user's group has also been organized for AJL members. Email Joan Gremont, [EMAIL PROTECTED], for more information. To find the web page listing the Weine documents, click on Resources on the AJL home page, and then on Weine Documents and Users Group (<http://www.jewishlibraries.org/ajlweb/resources/weine.htm>http://www.jewishlibraries.org/ajlweb/resources/weine.htm). Hope everyone is having a good summer. Debbie Stern, AJL VP for Publications Mordecai M.
