Bryskier Sent: Thursday, September 02, 2010 7:39 AM Subject: RE: [ha-Safran]: Websites relating to the Russian perspective of The problem is that One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich is not about the Holocaust...it's about the Russian Gulag under Stalin. For the Russian perspective of the Holocaust I would suggest http://www.gusen.orgwww.gusen.org, which discusses Russian POWs in WWII used as slave labor briefly. While Russian POWs, Jewish or not, were murdered by the millions, those who survived the winter of 1941-42 were used as slave labor in the quarries at Gusen I and labor camps elsewhere. Most Russian Jews were murdered by the Einsatzgruppen, special killing squads sent into Russia to kill Jews and Russian commissars after the Wehrmacht.Students will find information about the Einsatzgruppen many placesbut, again, this has nothing to do with Ivan Denisovich. Considering that millions of non-Jewish Russians POWs were starved, beaten, or shot to death, I would think that one perspective gained by researching their experience is that the Nazi state was good at murder. Although they planned to murder a large number of Poles and Russians and turn the conquered areas into slave states, they did not plan and attempt to kill all Poles or all Russians. This distinction was reserved for Jews, hence the unfortunate uniqueness of the Holocaust of the Jews.

Double check with your Rabbi if this is advisable in the first place.

This may not be the case with you and it may be okay to give them what you are asking for, however, it would not hurt and might even be helpful to mention this idea to your Rabbi. It is also possible that your Rabbi may have the exact resource that you are looking for.

In Jewish tradition ritual texts, especially texts that mention God, could not be destroyed. Genizas were storehouses to contain these texts that could not be destroyed when their useful life was up. This made me think of a library that I read about that I believe is in Chicago that collects books that other libraries or institutions are discarding. They accept a discarded book if they can find that less than a certain number of libraries own that title. Does anyone on the LBC list know the name of this library?

Dear Dan. You made me jump back in my chair! I was surprised that you wrote, Likewise, I don't believe, contrary to what appears to be the view of many in our profession today, that we are or should be in the information business. It could be that I misunderstood your comment. When you see a librarian, is all you see a person who shelves books and dusts bookshelves? I am sure not! Don't you see the informational services that librarians and library workers provide in libraries these days?

[ha-Safran]: Chromatic Haggadah and The Prophet of San Nicandro
Hello. I was asked to find information on purchasing the following two books. 1) Chromatic Haggadah (possible title.) It was described to me as a haggadah that is colour coded showing the different eras when the different sections of the haggadah were added throughout history to come out with the haggadah that we use today. 2) The Prophet of San Nicandro by Phinchas Lapid(e?). No description. If you have sources for purchasing these titles, please let me know and I will pass your information on to the patrons. Thanks.
