Shalom, The Nixon Library is a bit far from the main Jewish centers of Los Angeles, but if you're out on the West Coast, you should make plans to see this beautifully curated exhibit of items from the Iraqi Jewish Archives. . You can even see a life-size picture of our own Dina Herbert working on the collection.
http://www.nixonlibrary.gov/themuseum/exhibits/2015/DiscoveryRecovery.php Please share this listing with anyone you know in Southern California. We want the National Archives to see that we appreciate their part in conserving our heritage. I was able to preview the exhibit while attending a preservation workshop and it was well worth the drive. Wishing you all a sweet and healthy New Year, Jackie -- Jackie Ben-Efraim *"Although the books had changed, I the reader had not." **Micha Yosef Berdichevsky 1865-1921* Special Collections Librarian Ostrow Library American Jewish University 15600 Mulholland Drive Bel Air, CA 90077
