Dear Safranim, Not a Jewish program, but may be of high interest to those in RAS, although of course all a welcome. The plot involves the disappearance of a rare and valuable book. I enjoyed the book so much that I invited the author (who is a librarian) to speak. The program is virtual and free to many...(NYers, students, retirees). Please feel free to share with anyone who might be interested. Best, Sally

Eva Jurczyk provides a behind the curtains look at the rare book community, insightfully examining the makeup of the bibliophiles who populate it.” New York Journal of Books. Eva Jurczyk is a writer and librarian living in Toronto. She has written for Jezebel, The Awl, The Rumpus and Publishers Weekly. Her first novel, *THE DEPARTMENT OF RARE BOOKS AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS* was published in January 2022 and was an IndieNext and LibraryReads pick. -- Sally Stieglitz she/her Communications and Outreach Coordinator *Liaison to Academic, Hospital, and Special Libraries * Long Island Library Resources Council 631.675.1570 ext. 2005 sstiegl...@lilrc.org https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.lilrc.org__;!!KGKeukY!wURJPHJ6CsnQHVDT3fn7lplj-U2Mh50mV8WZ8zap8jP26cIQ0lXKvqzp98gMUFs6eU4hhjv_WMDUOrq-1ExrCVg$ [image: ORCID] https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://orcid.org/0000-0003-1552-9188__;!!KGKeukY!wURJPHJ6CsnQHVDT3fn7lplj-U2Mh50mV8WZ8zap8jP26cIQ0lXKvqzp98gMUFs6eU4hhjv_WMDUOrq-cQa2zC0$ LILRC is a member of the Empire State Library Network (ESLN <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.esln.org/__;!!KGKeukY!wURJPHJ6CsnQHVDT3fn7lplj-U2Mh50mV8WZ8zap8jP26cIQ0lXKvqzp98gMUFs6eU4hhjv_WMDUOrq-EfKqXhY$ >) Follow LILRC on Facebook <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.facebook.com/LILRCouncil/__;!!KGKeukY!wURJPHJ6CsnQHVDT3fn7lplj-U2Mh50mV8WZ8zap8jP26cIQ0lXKvqzp98gMUFs6eU4hhjv_WMDUOrq-JoC0CuE$ > Twitter <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://twitter.com/lilrc__;!!KGKeukY!wURJPHJ6CsnQHVDT3fn7lplj-U2Mh50mV8WZ8zap8jP26cIQ0lXKvqzp98gMUFs6eU4hhjv_WMDUOrq-cdJWIyM$ > Instagram <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.instagram.com/lilrcevents/__;!!KGKeukY!wURJPHJ6CsnQHVDT3fn7lplj-U2Mh50mV8WZ8zap8jP26cIQ0lXKvqzp98gMUFs6eU4hhjv_WMDUOrq-NAbYeTk$ >
