Re: [ha-Safran] Archives of/for Jewish Children's Literature?
While I don't know of such a place officially, unofficially, our library could be it. iI'll bet we have a copy of every Jewish children's book ever published in the US; If there's a title you are searching for, try our catalog, which is online at www.wisetemple.org, click on Library. (For a general children's collection, there is the Kerlan collection at the University of Minnestoa).

Dear Rachel, The Yemima Center Library for the Study and Teaching of Children and Young Adults' Literature is active at Bet Berl Academic College in Israel. The collections include the historic collection of the late Uriel Ofek, who published a lexicon about Hebrew childrens literature and many books and articles. The Center also publishes a scholarly journal, Olam Katan (A Small World). http://www.beitberl.ac.il/engDataPages/DataPagesPreview.asp?ID=6268 Good luck with your research!
