[ha-Safran]: Library jobs in Israel?
Hi everyone -- I recently joined this list at the advice of my brother, who said I may be able to get some advice from you -- my undergraduate degree is in journalism, I am in my last semester of my MLS program and plan on taking a course in indexing in a couple of months and on top of that, am planning to make aliyah in the summer of 2008. In the meantime I am trying to gather professional contacts and try to determine what the job market is like in Israel in the fields of librarianship and/or publishing, especially for someone who is still working on learning Hebrew? Any advice or contact names anyone can give me would be very helpful!

Why did you not use the classification BM 750? The hospital is no more the publisher than a printer or book store is the publisher of a book. I am just trying to be amusing, not nitpicking.

[ha-Safran]: Help with request
Hi: A patron has asked for books/magazines to give to a 15 yr old boy who, for the last 2 years, has, on his own initiative, attended the after school program at the synagogue near his home. He is Jewish but is not growing in a Jewish home. He is bright, intelligent and has some knowledge of Hebrew now. She has already offered him some Judaica items and The Chosen by Potok. She would like a list of books and also a good Jewish magazine.

[ha-Safran]: Publication of In The Plains Of The Wilderness, Ant
Chaim Mazo is pleased to announce the publication of In The Plains Of The Wilderness, Anthologies of Modern Jewish History. In his review of this book, Rabbi Dr. Alex Jassen at the Center for Jewish Studies at the University of Minnesota says, this book is a very readable survey of the major turning points and influential personalities in modern Jewish history...and the present state of Jews and Judaism. In the Plains of the Wilderness presents a fresh picture to understanding the trends and events in the modern Jewish world by examining significant episodes of Jewish history. A scholarly work, the author, Paul Azous, documents the Jews' transition from culture to culture, traversing through the wilderness. He supports his research with more than 800 annotations and has successfully culled the key events of the past 3,000 years to form a cohesive and thorough analysis of the modern era of Jewish history. Whether you are an educator examining new source material to introduce, or a library seeking an easy to understand book with a straightforward approach to understanding your Jewish cultural and religious heritage, In the Plains of the Wilderness will bring forth a clarity of history rarely grasped so quickly. In The Plains Of The Wilderness, Anthologies of Modern Jewish History is distributed by Ingram and Baker and Taylor. It is available through Gardners and Bertrams in the UK. 308 pages, Hard Cover with Jacket ISBN: 965-7344-10-7 Published by Mazo Publishers www.mazopublishers.com Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) === Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: Hasafran @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu SUBscribing, SIGNOFF commands send to: Listproc @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Questions, problems, complaints, compliments;-) send to: galron.1 @ osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html History: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/history.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org
