Hiyya All!
I don't think Valencia could get any hotter and not go up in a poof of
smoke.
I got the AJL Re-up Reminder from the Membership Chairperson Shulamis
Hes. As we can read by the note I got from Sheryl Stahl (30 june 2016):
*Hi Alba,****Congratulations! You are the first person to send in their
2016/17 membership! And I love the little card you sent. Ill put it on
my wall next to the Cat alone in Catalonia card! I will let our new VP
Membership, Shulamis Hes know that you sent in payment. After 8 years, I
am off the AJL board (still on council as webmaster). All the best,
Sheryl**.*
Over these last 18 years I've always been Mrs Nº999. Since I couldn't
come to the 2016 Convention, I dashed off a sweetened re-up check to
Sheryl as the next best thing: 75$US. This makes me Mrs Sweet Nº One for
the AJL's 2016/17's re-upping season! How's them apples and honey, eh?
What would I do without all you AJL librarians who have sent me books,
filmstrips, calendars, and moral support over the years? The Sinagoga
/La Javurá/ Library (Valencia, Spain) would have never happened without
AJL. The plan is to sweeten it a little more and work my way up from
there with each passing year. I've already paid back the 1999 Boca Raton
first-time attendee scholarship and about half of the Littauer Travel
Stipend so generously given to me for the Seattle 2010 Convention.
However....
Sweetened re-up cheques might get the debt paid off and others that
same chance to attend and travel but they will never ever ever pay back
the Good Will and Generosity of the members of AJL. These and so many
unsung qualities of all the members of AJL will get us modern librarians
to the other side of Google, Amazon and a whole bunch of other future
things we have yet to dream of.... together.

turned into a real home for the Sinagoga /La Javurá/, click HERE

Have a gander at a bunch of persons scurrying about and a lot of rubble
but you'll get the general gist. I manically rock between giddy-happy
and scared-out-of-my socks.
