Dear Colleagues:
My area of librarianship never intersected with Zilvanis', but I met him at several AJL conferences and always enjoyed speaking with him and learning about the important work he did. He was unwaveringly kind and a gentleman. I wondered why he was not at the June conference. May his memory be a blessing.

Dear Colleagues,

I just saw an announcement of the passing of Žilvinas Beliauskas, librarian of the Vilnius Jewish Public Library, who many of us met at AJL conferences. Žilvinas was supposed to join us in San Diego this year, but unfortunately couldn't make it because of health. I've copied the post from the VJPL below - I hope someone with better knowledge of Lithuanian than I can translate it! He worked tirelessly to share Jewish culture and knowledge in Vilnius and around the world. He will be missed. May his memory be for a blessing.

Netekome Lietuvos nacionalinės bibliotekos Vilniaus žydų viešosios bibliotekos vadovo Žilvino Beliausko. Žmogaus, kurio didžiulių pastangų ir darbo dėka Vilniuje atgimė žydų biblioteka ir kultūros centras. Žilvinas Beliauskas buvo Vilniaus žydų viešosios bibliotekos siela, šios bibliotekos, vėliau įsiliejusios į Nacionalinę biblioteką ir tapusios jos padaliniu, gyvavimo variklis, idėjų ir iniciatyvų šaltinis. Dėl vadovo iniciatyvų ir plataus kontaktų rato čia vyko gausybė įdomių, unikalių, autentiškų renginių: parodų, seminarų, paskaitų, meninių pasirodymų. Psichologo išsilavinimą turėjęs ir daug metų Mykolo Riomerio universitete dėstęs Ž. Beliauskas, ilgainiui atsidavė tik bibliotekos vystymo veiklai, nes tame matė labai didelę prasmę ir misiją. Jis visada buvo apsuptas žmonių, bičiulių, bendražygių ir lengvai įtraukdavo žmones į bibliotekos gyvenimą.
Vilniaus žydų viešosios bibliotekoje Ž. Beliauskas sukūrė draugišką, atvirą žinių ir bendravimo erdvę, kurioje puikiai jaučiasi ir darbuotojai, ir lankytojai.
Žilvino Beliausko išėjimas yra didžiulė netektis tiek Vilniaus žydų viešajai bibliotekai, tiek ir kiekvienam asmeniškai jį pažinojusiam.
Liūdime dėl skaudžios netekties ir reiškiame užuojautą Žilvino Beliausko šeimai, artimiesiems, draugams.
Ilsėkis ramybėje, brangus Žilvinai. Pažadame tęsti tavo pradėtą veiklą.
