[ha-Safran]: Convention Presentations

2008-06-10 Thread Susan Dubin
Calling All Presenters at this Convention:

Thank you for presenting at the AJL Convention in Cleveland. We are 
looking forward to hearing your presentation. I am collecting the 
handouts from the presentations to make a CD for the Avi Chai 
Bookshelf librarians. If you have handouts that you are willing to 
share, please email them to me as a word document by June 12th, and I 
will include them in this compilation.

Thank you!

Sincerely,
Susan Dubin
AJL/Avi Chai Co-Convention Liaison

[ha-Safran]: Celebration of Emma Lazarus

2008-06-10 Thread Ann Abrams
Dear safranim,

I recently entered Gale’s  (the publishing vendor) Librareo 
contest  http://www.gale.cengage.com/librareo and did not make it to 
the finals.

But, I thought you, safranim, would appreciate the song that my 
assistant, Kendrah Whyte, and I wrote to celebrate Emma Lazarus:

[ha-Safran]: Saying good-bye/au revoir

2008-06-10 Thread Anne Dublin
Dear colleagues,
Many of you are getting ready for what should be a wonderful 
Convention in Cleveland. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to join you 
this year. Due to budget cuts at my synagogue, the position of 
librarian has been drastically slashed. I find the situation 
untenable and will therefore be taking early retirement. It’s a 
“shande” that the largest Reform synagogue in Canada has seen fit to 
make this decision. I could rant on and on about the circumstances, 
but I realize that your time is valuable. Besides, from what I’ve 
read on Hasafran, this isn’t the first time that a Jewish institution 
has made such a short-sighted decision.
I’ve enjoyed working with so many of you in the AJL. You’ve been 
mentors, colleagues, and friends. I thank you all. For a time I’ll 
continue to co-edit the children’s and YA book reviews for the Newsletter.
Meanwhile, I hope to continue my writing and speaking activities; to 
spend more time with family and friends; to get involved with new 
projects and possibilities. After June 25, feel free to contact me at 
home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or (416) 633-7765.
And because my boss has asked me to, I’ll send a separate message to 
advertise the so-called librarian position.
I apologize for the bitter tone in this message, but perhaps it’s 
warranted under the circumstances.
All the best,
Anne Dublin
