Dear colleagues: Just came back from three very full and productive three days in Charleston SC organizing the logistics of our 51st AJL annual conference there, June 19th-22nd. Everything was PERFECT (besides the weather, but it's fall, we cannot expect bright sunshine) and the warm welcome we received and the eagerness to help made up for everything.
As a follow-up to my write up about food in Charleston, I would like to share some more information: Savannahbee. com The store is on King Street. All the honey, including South Carolina honey, is KSA certified. I stopped in this summer and sampled lots of different honey. Charlestonteaplantation.com The only active tea plantation in the U.S. Twenty miles from Charleston. There are tours, although I haven't been there yet, but the tea is available to purchase in 17 states as well as in Charleston. We met with librarians and faculty of the College of Charleston, rabbis and librarians in the community, the three Kosher caterers in the city, the AV specialist at the hotel, the event manager at the hotel, JCC and Federation administrators and you can't believe how proud they are that we have chosen their city to hold our annual conference. They will do anything they can to make it a great conference, helping us continue our tradition. Wishing you all a Shabbat Shalom and a great week-end, Best regards, Shoshanah Shoshanah Seidman Faculty Liaison, Program for Jewish Studies, Northwestern University Library 51st AJL Annual Conference co-chair 847-467-2914 __ Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) ================================== Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: hasaf...@lists.service.ohio-state.edu To join Ha-Safran, update or change your subscription, etc. - click here: https://lists.service.ohio-state.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran Questions, problems, complaints, compliments send to: galro...@osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.service.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html Earlier Listserver: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org -- Hasafran mailing list Hasafran@lists.osu.edu https://lists.osu.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran
