Dear Chicago Area Colleagues: North Suburban Synagogue Beth El (Highland Park, IL) is excited to host Dr. David Kraemer<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.jtsa.edu/team/david-kraemer/__;!!KGKeukY!zRKI_PWQUy50NK-j6WDVrZADp854jiR2GySsS8e-Up-an9p85NLMiUYo8sbfv8SinI0zPzaIJP5gie7GbcY90hb3w7DluQ$ >, the Joseph J. & Dora Abbell Librarian and Professor of Talmud & Rabbinics at the Jewish Theological Seminary, March 21-23, 2025. Dr. Kraemer will be speaking and teaching on Friday night and Saturday, but I think his presentation on Sunday, March 23 at 10:00 am, "Sharing the Treasures of the JTS Library: A Visual Presentation," will be of particular interest to librarians and library supporters. The Library of JTS has one of the world's most outstanding collections of rare Judaica, including manuscripts and documents filled with beauty and discovery. Dr. Kraemer will bring us into the inner sanctum of the Rare Book Room, sharing the glories of Jewish creativity through the ages and the unexpected realities of the past to which these works testify. You are welcome to join us for Morning Minyan at 8:45 am and Breakfast at 9:30 am; or just come at 10:00 am for the presentation.
Open to the community, free of charge but please register at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://nssbe.shulcloud.com/form/continuing-education-jts-scholar-2025.html__;!!KGKeukY!zRKI_PWQUy50NK-j6WDVrZADp854jiR2GySsS8e-Up-an9p85NLMiUYo8sbfv8SinI0zPzaIJP5gie7GbcY90hb4cMlsnw$ .
