From: Amalia Warshenbrot Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2022 2:22 PM To: Hasafran Subject: The reason for warding the Fanny Goldstein Merit Award to Elliot Gertel I read with interest Emily Bergman’s article about Elliot Gertel in the last issue of AJL News & Reviews (pages 2-3). Since I assume that it was a delayed info to offer the reasons to award Elliot the Fanny Goldstein Merit Award (2019), Allow me to add that the Fanny Goldstein Award, is a combination of two previous awards to AJL members: one for contributions to Judaic librarianship, which is listed in Emily’s article, and one to AJL. I wish to list Elliot’s positions on the AJL Board and Council: 1. Secretary of the Board and Council from 2002-2004 2. RAS vice-president 2004-2006. In this position he chaired the Judaica Bibliography and Reference Awards Committee. 3. RAS president from 2006-2008. Presidents take an active role in planning a conference. It is never an easy task. All this in addition to more years than I can recall of acting as AJL liaison to ALA. In this position, with compassion and diligence, he represented AJL through many events and was fighting passionately to defeat the repeated anti-Israel resolutions. Thank you, Emily, for highlighting Elliot’s many journeys. How little most members knew! Amalia Warshenbrot, AJL past president
