Thank you, everyone. It was a surprise and an honor! Dr. Raphael (Ralph) Simon, a former AJL member, was the third librarian interviewed and also deserves kudos. He's been a synagogue librarian in Cleveland for decades and was once very active in the now defunct Cleveland AJL chapter. His library at B'nai Jeshurun Congregation is exceptional. He was also my synagogue librarian at Cleveland's Temple Emanu El when I was growing up.
