An Orthodox story is A Dozen Daisies for Raizy. Cute but a little didactic.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Convention refunds

2009-05-22 Thread Susan Dubin
A refund can be made for registration if requested a certain amount 
of time before the convention. I believe a $25 amount is withheld. 
After a certain date we have to make guarantees to the hotel, so full 
refunds are difficult.

[ha-Safran]: Boys and immigration

2009-05-22 Thread Helene or Murray Tuchman
Along the Tracks by Tamar Bergman is about a boy separated from his family
as they make their way into the USSR fleeing Poland during WWII. He and
other children survive by living near railroad tracks and stations in the
hope of finding food, warmth and their families.

[ha-Safran] Evaluating old books

2009-05-22 Thread Ellie Shore
Dear Colleagues,



Years ago the widow of one of our rabbis gave us his book collection, 
which is rather large.  The collection is not part of our regular 
library, so the books are not catalogued and not used.  The Board of 
Directors would like to know what we have, and of course, the value 
of the collection, but does not know how to do this.  I'm not on the 
budget committee but I'm guessing that  our financial situation is 
such that it may be difficult to pay to bring an expert to Wichita to 
assess the collection.  Can anyone advise?



Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.
