[ha-Safran]: tekhines
A friend of mine is looking for a book about and/or including, tekhines, prayers created by women, many of which are in Yiddish. I think there was recent literature about this (I don't recall specific titles), but the salesperson at my local Judaica store wasn't much help. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thank you, and Shavua Tov. -Stanley Nachamie New York, New York snacha...@yahoo.com P.S. I am currently looking for a full-time job, preferably in cataloging and/or authority control and/or database cleanup. I have special training in Hebraica/Judaica cataloging, and music cataloging. I would prefer that the job be in the greater New York City area. My resume is available upon request. Please let me know if you have any leads. Thank you again. -Stanley --- Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) === Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: hasaf...@osu.edu SUBscribing, SIGNOFF commands send to: Listproc @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Questions, problems, complaints, compliments;-) send to: galron.1 @ osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html History: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/history.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org
