[ha-Safran] Writer seeking information about the arrival of Jews from Brazil to New Amsterdam in 1654
One of our patrons is researching this history, for material for a children's nonfiction book. If any suggestions for materials (I have given her Jewish Pirates of the Caribbean) or if you know of any children's books on the topic, I'd appreciate any input. She'd like any background on early Caribbean Jews (Jamaica, Curacao, Cuba) as well. Judy Weidman Judy Weidman Temple Librarian Congregation Beth Israel 5600 N.

Jaqueline Dembar Greene wrote a wonderful pair of fictional stories about this period for young readers: Out of Many Waters and One Foot Ashore.

[ha-Safran] help with a project
Dear safranim: Do you like to cook? Do you entertain and are you known as a great hostess? If you do, I and AJL need your help and your skills. I am looking for someone to help me communicate with the caterer for our next conference(s) especially the 2016 conference on whose planning we are working very hard. It's a fun and creative project - an important part of a great conference as we all know. Thank you in advance for stepping forward. Wishing you a pleasant Succot, Best, Shoshanah Shoshanah Seidman Faculty Liaison, Program for Jewish Studies, Northwestern University Library 847-467-2914 __ 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...@lists.service.ohio-state.edu To join Ha-Safran, update or change your subscription, etc. - click here: https://lists.service.ohio-state.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran Questions, problems, complaints, compliments send to: galro...@osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.service.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html Earlier Listserver: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org -- Hasafran mailing list Hasafran@lists.osu.edu https://lists.osu.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran
