Re: [ha-Safran] American Jewish University Library

2021-10-05 Thread Amalia Warshenbrot via Hasafran 
Thank you for Donnie for reminding me of it. The attendees of the last in 
person conference (was in in 2018 ?) had a post conference trip to the American 
Jewish Uni  Library that included a Kosher lunch.
Please keep in mind that AJL often offers such  post conference trips. Those 
trips are a real treat.
And, yes! Jackie and Lisa Silverman were the hosts. Both are expectational 
librarians.

Hi:
I have done a cursory search for books about Theodore Herzl for second graders
