Re: [ha-Safran] Links to past recorded AJL webinars?

[Heidi Rabinowitz via Hasafran]

In answer to the question about finding AJL webinar recordings, you can log
into the members only section and go to AJL Resources>Roundtables (
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishlibraries.org/mo-roundtables/__;!!KGKeukY!xRTkGZ-IzBvqXnojMUsgCyPkXeJq5RmPjNBPGnln8fLvbaG-7HVc_EBqVHz-xSR-dbzhu3dymjYMLYXUisR3wEjJVjTk6Aarre8Lm5At3wg$
 ) to find both SSCPL and RAS
videos.

To find recordings of past "AJL Presents" events (open to the general
public) you can go to Events & News>Events>AJL Presents (
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishlibraries.org/ajl-presents/__;!!KGKeukY!xRTkGZ-IzBvqXnojMUsgCyPkXeJq5RmPjNBPGnln8fLvbaG-7HVc_EBqVHz-xSR-dbzhu3dymjYMLYXUisR3wEjJVjTk6Aarre8LIpC0OUc$

[ha-Safran] bookish Jewish American Heritage Month content

[Erika Dreifus via Hasafran]

Shalom, everyone:

As you're likely aware, May is Jewish American Heritage Month (in Canada,
it's Jewish Heritage Month). I've been trying to amplify relevant content
from libraries, publishers, bookstores, and others, especially on social
media. I've organized and linked to relevant items in this post:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://wp.me/p4x0h8-cPE__;!!KGKeukY!w7-RlNBIuf2KKD3EQ35t5ELthguX9WqlWprCU5GkWHGRS4OL9PLNHp6OLDODHsM_9TIxnaukNEfQt9fYFM4xKcmrEYPHUg$
 . (Bonus: I'm also offering three free e-book
copies of my own very Jewish American short-story collection, because May
is also Short Story Month!)

You can find everything at 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://wp.me/p4x0h8-cPE__;!!KGKeukY!w7-RlNBIuf2KKD3EQ35t5ELthguX9WqlWprCU5GkWHGRS4OL9PLNHp6OLDODHsM_9TIxnaukNEfQt9fYFM4xKcmrEYPHUg$

Re: [ha-Safran] Renaissance-era Italian Ark comes to New Jersey

[Oscar Israelowitz via Hasafran]

Dear Programs Director,
An Ark designed in 1525, during the Italian Renaissance period, has been 
restored and reassembled in a New Jersey Hebrew school. This ark, which is used 
on a daily basis, is the oldest of its kind in the United States.
We have assembled 34 fascinating lecture programs, many of which have been 
presented in such venues as Public Libraries, Historical Societies, College 
Alumni Associations, Senior Centers, Synagogues and Temples, Community Centers, 
Hadassah Groups, Brandeis University Womens Organizations, Jewish Family 
Services of Phoenix and the New York City Council of Supervisors and 
Administrators (Retirees Chapter).
Some of our vast variety of programs range from the Great Architect Series 
(e.g. Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn or Moshe Safdie) to the Art of the New 
York City Subways. The Italian Ark is included in several of our zoom 
programs­–”Synagogues of the United States,” “Synagogues of Western Europe,” 
and “Jewish New Jersey in Vintage Photographs.” If your group or organization 
might be interested in some of these programs, please let us know and we will 
forward you the complete list.
Thank you very much.
Oscar Israelowitz
