[ha-Safran] Princess of Dan novel for young adults and older
Nechama Sarah Burgeman has written a fantastic novel, /The Princess of Dan/ published by Menorah Books and available through Amazon. Perfect for young adults and older, this story presents two parallel generations, one in the present and one that lives after the time of Messiah (Redemption). The premise of the book is to prepare humanity's consciousness for entering into this next phase of history. Reviews: "/T//his is a doubly rich book -- rich with its sense of human relationships in a scene of cultural change, and rich in Kabbalistic teachings that give this story of believable people a visionary dimension. It can be enthusiastically recommended to anyone interested in spirituality, relations of women and men, and/or the dialogue between Judaism and universalist culture/."

Please post--this might be of interest to librarians outside of the USA. Forwarded Message Subject: [IACRL] IFLA/OCLC Early Career Development Fellowship Program deadline is Friday Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2016 22:31:47 + From: Edwards, Eric ATo: ia...@list.railslibraries.info All: Do you know a promising young librarian from a developing country who would be interested in a career-development opportunity here in the U.S.? Encourage the person to apply for a spot in the Jay Jordan IFLA/OCLC Early Career Development Fellowship Program. Up to five people are selected each year. The program lasts for four weeks and is centered around OCLC’s headquarters, which is located in Dublin, Ohio. Fellows will have the opportunity to learn about issues affecting librarianship on a global level, particularly library operations and management, information technology, and global cooperative librarianship. Activities will include meeting with leaders in the field and touring a number of library organizations (including OCLC) and cultural-heritage institutions. Participants will also give presentations on issues affecting libraries in their home countries and will devise practical solutions to the major challenges currently facing libraries around the world. The underlying goal of the program is for participants to be able to take what they have learned and apply it to their own career growth and to the issues facing libraries and librarianship in their own countries. In addition to being from an eligible country, applicants must have earned a degree in library and information science within the past five years and have between three and eight years of professional experience. For more information about the program, and to view a video of this past year’s participants describing their experiences as Fellows, go to http://www.oclc.org/about/awards.en.html. Thank you.

Re: [ha-Safran] Is "Marrano" offensive
Hi, I believe that the current term being used is anusim. At our Sephardic shul, the term Marrano is taken as offensive so we have been using Anusim. Hope this is helpful. Rose *Anusim*(Hebrew: אֲנוּסִים, pronounced [anuˈsim]; singular male, Anús, Hebrew: אָנוּס pronounced [aˈnus]; singular female, Anusáh, Hebrew: אָנוּסָה pronounced [anuˈsa], meaning "Coerced [converted Jews]") is a legal category of Jews in halakha (Jewish law) who were forced to abandon Judaism against their will, typically ...

Historically and etymologically, at least, it's far from complementary. But now? I don't know. Off hand I think "Conversos" would be better since it's nominally less charged, but the improvement is only in slight degrees and there might be better terms. "Christian converts from Judaism" exists and it seems to suffice in all but the particulars of time and place. Maybe "Christian converts from Judaism $z Iberian Peninsula $y 16th century"? It's awkward, but it hits the particulars without using one of the more charged terms. $.02: mine.
