[ha-Safran]: PR Issues, Closing Libraries
I'm coming late to this discussion and have not read all of the previous posts, so please excuse me if I'm repeating ideas already presented or am speaking out of turn. But my general opinion is that AJL should engage a professional to help us rethink our purpose, organization, and activities - to create a new strategic plan for our association. It may be that we are not putting our best efforts where they are truly needed in this day and age, that we may need to engage a professional to help us project our image and to lobby for libraries. We all have great talent and many ideas, but are we using them to the best advantage of our profession? Many non-profit organizations engage in such strategic rethinking and I think it's time for us to do so as well, to ensure the future of Judaica librarianship.

[HaSafran]: Timely book-Letter on the Wind
Dear Friends, I'd like to call your attention to a new book by Sarah M Lamstein, a member of my congregation, that is being published by Boyd Mills Press on September 1. Its title is Letter on the Wind,a Chanukah Tale, but don't wait for Chanukah to order it or use it. It is very appropriate for the High Holidays with its themes of faith and the evils of lashon hora. It is a children's picture book illustrated by Neil Waldman but it can be used with many ages. I'd keep it on the shelf all year long and not pigeon-hole it with the holiday books.

[ha-Safran]: Humash volumes to give away
I am looking to give away multiple copies of 3 volumes of a humash w/ commentary - all Hebrew. The series is called Hamishah humshei torah, ha-m'fo'ar m'irat einayim, published in Jerusalem in 1991. It includes the Torah text, targum onkelos, perush rashi, ba'al ha-turim, ikar shiftei hahamim, and toldot aharon; also the haftarot with peirush, and the megillot. I have 15 copies of Vayikra (includes Shir ha-shirim), 17 copies of Bemidbar (includes Ruth), and 17 copies of Devarim (includes Eicha and Kohelet). Almost all the copies are in new condition; a few have some wear. They're yours for the cost of postage. Any copies that no one wants are going into the genizah for eventual burial. Shabbat shalom!
