[ha-Safran] Newest Nice Jewish Book podcast episode

[Sheryl Stahl via Hasafran]

If I told you that this episode was going to be about a house which ran around 
on chicken legs, you might assume that this should belong to an odd looking 
children’s book. But NO! This is a full-fledged intruiguing adult adventure. 
When the Yaga siblings inherit their grandmother’s house, they set off on a 
journey to hide from the mysterious man who is stalking the house, discover 
themselves, and oh yes, create puppet shows along the way. Listen in to Hannah 
Srour-Zackon’s interview of GennaRose Northcott about her AJL honor winning 
book, Thistlefoot.

Re: [ha-Safran] Beth David Library (Reform) in Westminster California is Being cut in half.

[Carol Janoff via Hasafran]

This is happening to my temple library too.  We have sold our current building 
and are renting it back for 3 years, but the outer building where the library 
filled two rooms with over 7,000 volumes has been unavailable to us from the 
time of the sale.  The books are all packed in boxes and stored in the attic of 
the sanctuary.  The new building will almost certainly not have a room (or 
rooms) dedicated solely to the library but will most likely have a conference 
room or some such with shelves around the perimeter.  Obviously most of the 
books will not fit and I just don’t even know what we can do with so many 
discarded books.  It breaks my heart because I started this library and have 
added to it and run it for over 25 years and I think it is a fine collection.  
I am a volunteer (with a library science degree from 1973) and I don’t really 
want to even deal with this situation. I am dreading the day when the 
administrator asks me to do it.  But if I say NO as this point I have no idea 
who would do it.

Dear Judaica Librarians:

My library at Beth David in Westminster, California is being cut in half.  They 
need the classroom for the Youth Lounge.  The Youth Lounge is being turned into 
a preschool classroom to make more money for the synagogue as the Preschool has 
a waiting list.
The 1,100 childrens and teen books are going into the Religious School 
Directors office. The 100 reference books are going into the Rabbi's office. 
400 of the 1800 adult fiction and non-fiction books are staying in the new 
Youth Lounge.  The remaining 1,400 or 1,500 books are going away.  This is a 
nightmare to eliminate the books that are going away from my ResourceMate 
catalog.  Has anyone else had to deal with this?  I have been the Volunteer 
Librarian there for 10 years.

Re: [ha-Safran] Beth David Library (Reform) in Westminster California is Being cut in half.

[Daniel Stuhlman via Hasafran]

Forgive me for my humor --- I think you should ask that your salary be
doubled for all the pain and *tsorot* of decision making.


I purged many of the books from the Temple Sholom collection and replaced
them with electronic books. We now have more than free 405 e-books.  This
only works for some older books and books that publishers let us have free
access to.  Most of our older books are in a closed stack area.  The
library room is used for meetings and classes and few books get checked
out.  We also have books in the Beit Midrash.

Michelle,
 This is so upsetting. It happens to many librarians, but, it doesn’t solve the 
problem.
I’ll be surprised if anyone has a simple solution.

[ha-Safran] Beth David Library (Reform) in Westminster California is Being cut in half.

[Michelle Sandler via Hasafran]

Dear Judaica Librarians:

My library at Beth David in Westminster, California is being cut in half.
They need the classroom for the Youth Lounge.  The Youth Lounge is being
turned into a preschool classroom to make more money for the synagogue as
the Preschool has a waiting list.
The 1,100 childrens and teen books are going into the Religious School
Directors office. The 100 reference books are going into the Rabbi's
office. 400 of the 1800 adult fiction and non-fiction books are staying in
the new Youth Lounge.  The remaining 1,400 or 1,500 books are going away.
This is a nightmare to eliminate the books that are going away from my
ResourceMate catalog.  Has anyone else had to deal with this?  I have been
the Volunteer Librarian there for 10 years.
