[ha-Safran] Bookplates for a synagogue library

[Joy Kingsolver]

Dear colleagues,

We need to order bookplates to put in new books for our synagogue library.
Does anyone have a supplier to recommend?
I see that Vernon library supplies and The Library Store offer them, but
none of the designs have specifically Jewish elements.

Thanks,
Joy Kingsolver

Re: [ha-Safran] Bookplates

[Aileen Grossberg]

Toby et al,


I only use bookplates when someone has either physically given a book ,requests 
a plate, or we have conducted a targeted fund raising opportunity (.e.g.when we 
purchased a full set of Talmud)


For general monetary donations to the library, we list them in our bulletin and 
I keep a record. I've not had any objections.


Unfortunately, I've never been able to get a children's birthday club or the 
like off the ground. If the library had such a thing, we would use plates in 
the books.


Sometimes when I need to put bookplates in items, I put them in basinal new 
books that are already in circulation. No one seems to mind.


Hope this helps.

Dear Synagogue Librarians:
 
I would like to hear thoughts on the value and continued usage of bookplates.  
We have two library donor funds here:  one adult and one children.  My 
children’s book purchases generally keep up with the number of donations and I 
add bookplates honoring the donors in whatever way they have requested.  The 
kids love seeing the names and we even have a bookplate contest here every 
year. However, I am about one year behind in adult books and this is because I 
don’t buy nearly as many adult books anymore. 
 
I am wondering if others are using bookplates for adult materials and if their 
bookbuying matches their number of donors.  I normally don’t include used 
donated books to the bookplate unless they ask for a bookplate specifically.  
Might the childrens’ library donors someday surpass the purchases as well?  How 
do we continue to honor memories, simchas and mitzvahs if our libraries are 
transforming and our print  collections getting smaller?  I often encourage 
people to purchase books from the wish list to give rather than money but this 
rarely happens – not that I’m swamped with monetary donations either.  I’m 
tempted to just stop adding adult bookplates and not worry about it.  ;)
 
Anybody else troubled with bookplate dilemmas?   Thanks!

[ha-Safran] bookplates

[Debby Lazaroff]

Hi,

Does anyone  know of a good place to order bookplates, to put in books to 
acknowledge donations in honor of or in memory of.  We would like to order 
bookplates with our synagogue logo on them.

Thanks!
