[Rita Lifton]

The New York Metropolitan Area Chapter of the Association of Jewish 
Libraries (AJL-NYMA) will hold its Spring 2011 Conference on Tuesday 
morning, May 17th, 9 am-1 pm, at Hebrew Union College-Jewish 
Institute of Religion, 1 West 4th Street, New York City. The theme of 
the conference is "From Generation to Generation: Jewish Genealogy in 2011."

Mr. Friedman will cover basic methods and resources for Jewish family 
history research. Beginning with oral history and "family archives" 
of photographs and documents, genealogists use sources like the US 
census, immigration and naturalization papers, vital records, 
cemetery and funeral home records, newspapers, city directories, and 
telephone books.  These materials may be in the form of handwritten 
documents, printed books, microforms, or databases and images on the 
Internet.  Methods for recording and displaying genealogical data 
include printed forms and computer software.  The origins of Jewish 
names and how to deal with spelling variations are also important 
topics.  The presentation will be illustrated with many examples, and 
handouts listing key resources will be provided.

Curator, Loeb Visitors Center of Touro Synagogue and President of

technologies in family history research, looking specifically at 
trends in digital resources and software tools and methodologies for 
assisting and directing library patrons.



*Following the formal program, AJL-NYMA invites the entire community 
to a reception in honor of retiring librarians Aviva Astrinsky, YIVO 
Institute of Jewish Research, and Philip Miller, HUC-JIR. Please join 
us as we celebrate the careers and contributions to Judaica 
librarianship of these two outstanding individuals.

[ha-Safran]: 2011 Helen and Stan Vine Canadian Jewish Book Awards

[Stuart Schnee]

Urim Publications is proud to announce that its title An Italian 
Renaissance: Choosing Life in Canada by Robert Rubinstein has been 
chosen as a winner of the 2011 Helen and Stan Vine Canadian Jewish Book Awards.



More info:



An Italian Renaissance

Choosing Life In Canada



"…consistently touching, quietly inspiring, and too compelling to put down."

- Rabbi Yitz Greenberg, Founding President, Jewish Life Network

Recent decades have seen an outpouring of literature about the tragic 
destruction of European Jewry during the Second World War.  Yet 
virtually nothing has been published about the astounding process of 
healing and recovery undergone by many survivors of the Holocaust, 
who had to overcome unspeakable personal trauma to build successful 
new lives.  The present book, written with sensitivity and eloquence 
by the loving son of two such people, breaks important new ground in 
describing and shedding light on this remarkable phenomenon.



The story follows Béla and Judit Rubinstein as they return from the 
camps at the end of the War, their families having been murdered by 
the Nazis. Seeing no future in the land of their birth, they flee 
Hungary and end up trapped in a refugee camp in northern Italy, 
because homeless Jews are welcome nowhere in the world.  Finally, an 
unforeseen opportunity arises to immigrate to Canada. The 
Rubinstein's establish a new home, raise a family, and integrate into 
the Toronto community. Achieving unimagined material success, they 
remain warm, decent, unassuming people. Along the way, they reclaim 
their ravaged ancestral faith, and this imbues their lives with 
meaning and purpose.



The book's universal message of hope is sure to inspire a broad range 
of readers.



About the Author:

  Robert Eli Rubinstein is a businessman and Jewish communal leader 
in Toronto, Canada. He and his wife Renée have four children and 
eight grandchildren.





  This title is available through Baker and Taylor, directly from the 
distributor Lambda

(Tel: 718-972-5449 fax: 718-972-6307) or from booksellers.

[ha-Safran]: Shlemiel Crooks, the Musical

[Anna Olswanger]

I wanted to let AJL know that the family musical based on Shlemiel 
Crooks (a Sidney Taylor Honor Book) turned out to be a lot of fun.

The Kaufman Center posted an excerpt from the rehearsal a couple of 
days before the performance:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdKBW5h-gZ0

And a nice article appeared after the musical:

http://www.memphisflyer.com/memphis/family-ties/Content?oid=2741359

The Kaufman Center has decided to produce the musical again next 
year, so I hope that some of you in the New York area will be able to 
attend. The kids in the audience had a great time.

Best,

Anna Olswanger

Aloha, again,

I've been reminded that "inside" pages of the AJL site could also 
benefit from more images. If you have non-copyrighted images of book 
covers, for example of AJL-award-winning titles, please share them, too.

Same rules apply...

height: 150 px
width: up to 734 px
resolution: 150 or less

Please provide brief captions and send them to me ( s...@hawaii.edu ) 
at your earliest convenience. Your images will become part of several

Thanks.

Blood Will Tell: Vampires as Political Metaphors Before World War I

By Sara Libby Robinson

ISBN 978-1-934843-61-1 (cloth) $59.00 / £54.50

250 pp, April 2011



Topic Areas: Literary Criticism; European Studies



Level: Academic (Undergraduate and Graduate) and General Reader



Summary: Blood Will Tell explores the ways in which writers, 
thinkers, and politicians used blood and vampire-related imagery to 
express social and cultural anxieties in the decades leading up to 
the First World War.  Covering a wide variety of topics, including 
science, citizenship, gender, and anti-Semitism, Robinson 
demonstrates the ways in which rhetoric tied to blood and vampires 
permeated political discourse and transcended the disparate cultures 
of Great Britain, France, Germany, and the United States, forming a 
cohesive political and cultural metaphor.  An excellent resource, 
both for students of nineteenth century cultural history and for 
those interested in the historical roots of Western fascination with vampires.

Author: Sara Libby Robinson received her PhD in Comparative History 
from Brandeis University.  Her other publications include "Novel 
Anti-Semitisms: Vampiric Reflections of the Jew in Britain, 
1875-1914," which appeared in Jewish Studies in Violence: A 
Collection of Essays (University Press of America, 2006).

[ha-Safran]: Bibliography Hebrew books Shanghai?

[Jonathan Fishburn]

Dear Safranim

I would appreciate anyone who can direct me to any bibliographies of 
the Hebrew books printed in Shanghai especially those printed during 
and immediately after WWII


I am aware of

1. Z. Harkavy - In Hasefer No 9 1961 referred to in Ency Judaica
2. Elbaum - Hamayan - 2000 Defusai Shanghai U'Shearet HaPletah

I believe someone wrote a supplement with another 20 titles or so (in 
English) can't remember where I saw it. (may have been in a festschrift?)

or any bibliographies of Jewish books published in Shanghai

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Best regards

Jonathan
