I would like to give a standing ovation to Jerry Krautman for his vision to create a portal for the member libraries of the leading authority on Judaica librarianship.
I’d like to also express my deepest gratitude to Donna and Richard Harris for their willingness to support this vision. As we remember our journey to freedom in Eretz Israel, this is a perfect time to virtually journey to a Judaica library.
