[ha-Safran]: Donations
I am a volunteer Librarian with a small synagogue in Toronto. We recently opened our library and are being inundated with donations. Our committee finds it is spending most of its time sorting through everyone's cast-offs and not having time to consider the collection and what we really want in it. Just wondered if anyone has a "politically correct" response to congregants. Thanks.

Dear Jenny, Ask people to stop sending their books, sit down with your committee, and map out a collections developoment policy. If folks still send books ( and they will) box them, and don't look at them until you're done setting up your infrastructure with lots of clear policies that you can refer to and hold up to others. FYI, if people are desparate to send books somewhere, NOW, refer them to local charities, thrift shops, used books stores, etc. Or, if they're willing to pay the postage: In Seattle, WA, there is a Jewish Prisoners project. Contact Chaplain Gary Friedman. [EMAIL PROTECTED] . There's someone in China who posted to hasafran awhile ago, collecting books for Judaic studies programs: [EMAIL PROTECTED] And, tell your congregants if they REALLY want to be helpful to your new library, they'll type up an author/title list of what they'd like to donate to you, and send you the list by email. Then, you can tell them what from their list would be useful for the collection. But tell them, too, that you first need to get your systems in place before you can deal with receiving donations of books. If you'd like to see a sample of a gifts policy, visit our website: http://www.tisrael.org/study/library.php?page=467 Good luck!

Two more terrific projects (if people are willing to pay postage) that we have partnered with the Hebrew School for a bar mitzvah project is to send books to Israel through the Jade Bar Shalom Books for Israel Project. http://booksforisrael.wikispaces.com/ and to send to other synagogue libraries where tragedy has struck, such as New Orleans, to help replenish their libraries.

I just received a donation of the book, Contemporary Jewish Religious Thought: Original essays on critical concepts, movements, and beliefs. This book has a copyright date of 1987. It has 1163 pages, so it takes up a lot of space, and I have a limited amount of space. I do not have this book in my collection, but the ten year rule says I shouldn't add it. Should I just sell this book at my annual sale? I am also being inundated with Holocaust books, many of which are memoirs. Our local library and Universities have pretty extensive collections and don't need these books. I need more ideas of what to do with them.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Donations
Donations are always a mixed blessing. First make sure that you have a written collection development policy. Second be ready to hand a copy of the policy to all potential donors. Third make sure that all donors understand that the librarian may keep the books, sell them or dispose of them based on the needs of the library. There is no appeal to this decision. If someone asks why a book was not added simply say that the book did not fall within our collection development policy. If you need help with this policy, search the HaSafran archives as several people have shared their policies.

RE: [ha-Safran]: Donations
I also run a small donation based lending library - in our case, we tend to focus on non-fiction judaica, but we do get some fiction too. Pretty much the path I take is to make sure that the donor recognizes that we are a library, not an archive. Books need to be appropriate for our purpose (Judaica). In many cases, donors simply want to pass on a pile of unsorted books. When that happens, I make it clear that the books will be sorted, and ones that are not a good fit will be passed on to other organizations (I rarely sell them - usually they go to homeless shelters, hospitals, schools, etc - other places that can use "free" books). The most important thing is for the donors to know that donations will not necessarily end up in circulation - duplicates, worn, or off-target books that won't end up in the collection will be passed on - make sure your donors know this, and (if they care) have some idea as to where the books may end up. Another good option (at least for duplicates) would be to post them here, and see if anyone on this list is interested...

Re: [ha-Safran]: Donations
If you have any books in Hebrew of religious nature not fit for circulation, the folks at HebrewBooks.org will take them off your hands and scan them in for their archive. The scanning process is destructive so it is a good fit for the books that would not circulate otherwise.

Hello Helen,
The organization Jewish Prisoner Services International (JPSI) is
always looking for donations of Jewish books as well as ritual items
- things they refer to as "Dormant Judaica." I have found it a good
place to which to send overflow items where they will be appreciated.
Check out their web site for more information:

[ha-Safran]: Donations - replies
You will receive many replies so here are my thoughts after over 20 years of working in a Jewish library that also serves two synagogues. The 10 year rule is a good one. In addition there is, usually, little demand in synagogue libraries for books that offer essays on variety of issues. I suggest to first ask the Rabbi if he/she wants to have it. Then go over the table of contents. If you see an essay that might be very important to your congregation make a copy of it and keep it. I believe that the copy right expired. It is OK to do it for educational purposes. All the best Amalia Warshenbrot, Director emeritus Levine-Sklut Judaic Library & Resource Center Charlotte NC Email: amalia...@att.net Phone: 704-365-3313 - I would accept the book and the memoirs also or you can send them directly to a local Holocaust study center at the Univ of Mass and I am sure they would pay postage. If interested will send you contact information. all the best Ken Schoen - If you have duplicate holocaust memoirs that u don't need they might be of use at our UCLA library. Let me know what you think.

Dear Safranim, Many people asked about where they could make a donation in memory of Dov Klein, son of Adaire and Manny Klein. I spoke to Adaire yesterday, and she said that they are making a memorial garden in memory of Dov at her synagogue, B'nai David Judea in Los Angeles. Donations may be sent in Dov's memory to: Dov Klein Memorial Garden Fund B'nai David Judea 8906 West Pico Blvd. Los Angeles, CA90035 Attention: Amram Dov loved working in the garden, and Adaire felt this was a fitting memorial for him. May his name always be for a blessing, and may Manny and Adaire find comfort in the warm feelings of their friends.

Please see the message below: MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger The only national Jewish organization whose sole focus is hunger relief, Mazon helps to provide nourishment and promote self-sufficiency for hundreds of thousands of people at risk of hunger in America, Israel and around the world. Mazon is a leader in the global anti-hunger movement. Since 1985 Mazon has granted tens of millions of dollars to emergency food providers, food banks, multi-service organizations and advocacy groups that seek solutions to the problem of hunger. Our support makes it possible! The AJL's convention started a tradition of its own: we have generously given to MAZON in Cambridge, Scottsdale, and Cleveland, and we want to make Chicago as memorable! We will be placing Mazon envelopes on the tables at the banquet, and ask you to give from the heart.
