[ha-Safran]: Old children's books
Some time ago I remember reading that someone was developing a collection of old childrens' books. I have several that I would like to add to this collection. Please let me know who is involved in this project. Thank you.

[ha-Safran]: old children's books
Re U of AZ at Tempe: When we were preparing to move from Trenton NJ to Pennington NJ had, literally, a closet full of books we didn't want to keep, I put out some feelers for this. Boxes went to Harvard, San Diego State, U of AZ at Tempe. This man Zipperstein left them something like 10,000 books, I sent them some more. Later I was in Phoenix for an Elderhostel program walked over to the U met Rachel leKet Mor (I think I got her name right). Beyond fascinating. Cataloging classifying these books will occupy this lady for the rest of her life. Seems like an unusual place for a collection of Judaica, but there it is.

[ha-Safran]: Weeding old children's books
Several years ago when Har Sinai was moving fron Trenton to Pennington, we had to discard many books. It's one thing to pack up move books that you are going to keep, but quite another to move books you have decided, for whatever reason, not to move. I ultimately sent 4 boxes to Harvard for their archives 5 boxes to U of Arizona in Tempe. Reimburse us for postage, you may have them. The old 40s 50s textbooks were simply discarded because no one wanted them - muy Rabbi said that many of them weren't very good when they first came out.
