Mr. Merkowitz, The article does not indicate that they digitalized important archival documents. You are right that I have to accept this reality, but technology has limitations. I find it hard to imagine future libraries without books.

If you have the paper it is in the front page. You can’t miss it. The title is: Shrinking AJC library sends Trove of books to new homes. I was relieved to see that our friend Rita Saccal from the Seminario Rabinico in Buenos Aires, ARGENTINA got many of the treasures. If you can’t find it I will be happy to scan it and send it to you.
