[ha-Safran] Upping the ante @ The Mentor Mingle
As a continuation of my posting yesterday, I'm going to provide additional details which should make the traditional mingle a bit more attractive to the klal. This year reverse mentoring and peer-to-peer mentoring have been added to the agenda. Since many of you do not find yourselves suited to the traditional framework of mentoring (as either mentor or as mentee), alternatives to learning, growing and sharing among professionals have been added. Reverse mentoring takes place when seasoned librarians receive advice from more newly minted library school students or graduates. In return, the seasoned librarians reciprocate with expertise from their line of experience. Peer-to-peer mentoring is more lateral in nature. For example, a reference librarian might cross-pollinate ideas of interest with a technical services maven, and vice-versa. Study-buddies is sometimes used to describe this arrangement. Whatever your style, we hope to see many of you at this gathering on Sunday from 8:30-11PM. Come together with colleagues to casually discuss hot button topics such as library advocacy, employment, change of careers, fund-raising, and electronic resources. Of course, this venue is only the beginning of convention-long networking, connecting and supporting. Please contact me at your earliest convenience if you are interested in any of the above forms of mentoring. Even if you are not a first-timer and simply want to maximize your attendance at convention, you should certainly take advantage of this great service. There is NO additional charg. RSVPs are welcome but not mandatory. Have a safe journey!

[ha-Safran] AJL Scholarship Fund.
Hello Safranim, We all know that the economy is uncertain at best and we've all heard about, or even experienced, the burdens of student loans in a weak job market. For those reasons, I'd like to call your attention to the AJL Scholarship Fund. We provide two scholarships annually to students in Library and Information Science programs at accredited institutions who show interest in and ability for careers in Judaica librarianship. This year we had a crop of twelve excellent applicants who showed tremendous promise. It was extremely difficult to narrow it down to two winners, but we managed. The winners for this year are [drum roll] Rina Krautwirth and Rachel Bloch Shapiro. Mazal tov to both of them. We hope they will be able to graduate from their programs with less debt because of this scholarship and that the recognition on their CV's will help them to get good paying jobs. It is really an honor to be able to award these scholarships and with the graying of our profession, it is heartening to see bright young people stepping into Judaica Librarianship. When I read the applications this year I was filled with optimism for our profession's future. I only hope we will be able to continue to award the scholarships. Donations have been down significantly this year. For not much more than you pay to buy a mushy card in a store, you can make a meaningful donation to the fund as a way of honoring someone or remembering someone and in doing that, help us to provide scholarships in the future. Donations can be sent to me at the address below. Don't forget to include the name, address and reason for the tribute card you would like sent. Here are donations and tributes from the fund for 2012: Ronda Rose - Get well wishes to Jom Rosenbloom. Elliot H. Gertel - To Anne Dublin in memory of your beloved mother Gail Dublin. Lynn Feinman - To Eleanor Siegel in memory of your son Steven Siegel. Sarah Barnard - To Israela Ginsburg in memory of your father Dov Perlman. Sarah M.

[ha-Safran] What are you grateful for?
Hi Everybody, This isn't a library-specific message, but we thought you'd like to hear about it anyway. We've recently started a new website devoted to a concept we came up with called the Mincha Moment. It's just a quick moment that you take every day at 2:30 to remind yourself of all you have to be grateful for. Got a job? Got a house, a car? Got a job, house and car WITH air conditioning!? Amazing! What else can you be thankful for? Your friends, your favorite comfy sandals, fresh air... a good book? So please join us if you can, and stop by our website at www.minchamoment.com or log onto our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mincha-Moment/209421645771552?ref=tn_tnmn and like us or write on our wall telling us what you're grateful for. Today, and every day! So stop, look around, and realize all that you've got. Take time -- the mincha moment -- and be grateful.
