From abl...@jps.org Subject: RE: [ha-Safran]: "Jewish Publication Society Sale Brings End to Era"
Hi Everyone, I wanted to take a moment to respond to the news about our move forward. I can assure you that our decision to partner with the University of Nebraska Press will not only allow us to continue to publish ground-breaking works of Jewish interest, but to do it better than before. For 125 years, we have been a solid institution, filling a void within the Jewish community with scholarship, Bible and biblical commentary, and other invaluable works. This will not change. Under our current agreement, JPS will continue to acquire new titles, more so than we have over the last few years. We will continue to be a nonprofit book publisher, partnering with the University of Nebraska, who will handle our sales, marketing, licensing, and production. It is a win-win for JPS: we can now acquire and develop quality works for the Jewish community without having to deal with the business side of publishing. I personally consider the University of Nebraska Press to be our ultimate and ideal donor, helping us to continue and shine for many years to come. All the best, Alx Block Director of Sales and Marketing The Jewish Publication Society 2100 Arch St. Phila.
