[ha-Safran]: Rabbi and Cantor Book Recommendation
We have a Rabbi/Cantor couple coming in as guest readers for the Chanukah season. They're a lively pair and I'm looking for the perfect book for them to read to 3rd graders at Schechter. Any suggestions? It doesn't have to be Chanukah necessarily. It could be heroes, spirituality, community. Perhaps something that has an element of connecting with Gd through song, or about using singing to lift one's spirits. I'm open to anything! Thanks for your suggestions!

[ha-Safran]: Library Standards and Benchmarks
Dear Colleagues, We are a Jewish Day School and have begun the Herculean task of setting official standards and benchmarks for all curricular areas both general and Judaic. We are looking for examples of such standards for the Library program. Do you have any codified library curriculum standards and benchmarks that you could share with us? Our focus is primarily the K-5 campus but we do go through grade 12. Thank you in advance for your help.

[ha-Safran]: New Library Automation System
We are a K-5 Jewish Day School and are looking for a new computer management system for our library. We currently use Mandarin but a broken server has presented the opportunity to investigate purchasing an entirely new system. Any suggestions on which ones to evaluate? Which ones to not bother investigating? We would love to have our Hebrew language books included in the automation as well. What do you like/not like about your system? Thanks so much for your help!

[ha-Safran]: Library volunteers
Dear Experienced Friends, For budgetary considerations, our school library will be shifting from two full-time librarians to just one. The Administration proposes using parent volunters to cover the clerical aspect of checking books in and out and, depending on the level of capability, processing new acquisitions. What advice and experience do you have that will help us implement this new way of conducting business in the library? Do's and don'ts for the Librarian, volunteers and administration would be so helpful. Thank you in advance for sharing your expertise.
