[ha-Safran]: Need advice
I am converting my AV collection of about 400 items (juvenile and adult) to a new storage system and, of course, weeding at the same time. My question is: do you think it's worth keeping the almost-100 titles I have on cassette tape? They are audio books, read-alongs and music, many with pretty low circulation. A few I will try to replace on CD. I did save the VHS movies as it seems that VCRs are still around, but tape players seem to be obsolete, not even in cars anymore. Please advise.

In any case, please share this information from the publisher on other relevant lists. Thank you. The Way Jews Lived Five Hundred Years of Printed Words and Images Constance Harris Foreword by Shalom Sabar Jefferson, N.C.: McFarland Company, 2009 ISBN 978-0-7864-3440-4 385 photos, glossary, bibliography, index 477pp. hardcover (7 x 10) Price: $95.00 Description Intertwining history and art over five centuries, this detailed overview of Jewish culture and events focuses on how printed writings and artworks have reflected the perceptions of Jews by themselves and others. Filled with nearly 400 illustrations of woodcuts, engravings, etchings, lithographs, serigraphs and other visual works, it details the representation of Jews and Jewish life chronologically while giving individual attention to the regions and countries in which Jews have lived in significant numbers. From editions of the Haggadah to portraits to antiSemitic cartoons, diaries to newspapers to novels, it analyzes a vast array of works that both molded and revealed Jewish popular opinion. About the Author Constance Harris divides her time between homes in Beverly Hills, California, and Birmingham, Michigan. Reviews In her riveting new work, The Way Jews Lived, author Connie Harris masterfully explores over six centuries of Jewish social history with keen eye and balanced perspective. This important study skillfully offers the reader a rare glimpse into the interconnection between complex world events and how Jewish life, with all its triumphs and challenges, is woven irrevocably through them. This enlightening book is a thorough, clearly organized examination which seems to leave no stone unturned, particularly in its fascinating analysis of the rise of antiSemitism in 19th century central Europe. Sometimes inspiring, occasionally bittersweet, this collection which personifies the heroic struggle of our people is a consistently thought-provoking, entertaining read. I heartily recommend The Way Jews Lived to anyone, regardless of faith, who has a healthy appetite for knowledge.Rabbi Steven Weil, Senior Rabbi, Beth Jacob Congregation, Beverly Hills, California. Constance Harris has discovered a trove of visual representations of Jewsrich and poor, prominent and humblethat illustrate the diversity of Jewish life in the early modern and modern world and the complex graphic responses it inspired. Some are the work of well-known artists, like George Gruikshank [sic] and James Whistler, while others are the work of unknown illustrators for the popular press. Whether polished or crude in their execution, they make concrete the contours of Jewish life as it was being transformed by the forces of modernity. Harris places them in the context of their times and provides the reader with the keys to understanding the often obscure symbolic shortcuts they employ.Todd Endelman, History Professor, University of Michigan.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Article needed
Andrea Colleagues, I am in need of an article from Hadassah Magazine, June 1969, titled:The Ketubah in Jewish Art, Howdy do. In the web page of the Sinagoga conservador La Javura we put up the BJE Los Angeles 1978 filmstrip on Ketubot.

[ha-Safran]: Audio, and a question for you
One of the speakers at the AJL Convention will be Mark Blevis, the well-known podcaster and kidlit fan. His talk is called How I Learned About Amazing Jewish Books Through Social Media. This session is not to be missed! I met up with Mark at the Podcasters Across Borders conference (of which he is one of the organizers) and did an interview with him for The Book of Life. He talked about what we can expect from his AJL presentation, and he posed a question for us that may actually help him shape his talk: What concerns do we have about the visibility of Jewish books, especially books for kids? Please do share your thoughts by emailing him at markble...@gmail.com! You can listen to my interview with Mark on the AJL Convention blog at http://ajl09.posterous.com. It will soon appear on The Book of Life site as well (http://www.bookoflifepodcast.com), but you can get it right NOW at the convention blog. Thanks for listening!
