Re: [ha-Safran] Letter from Adaire Klein

2012-11-01 Thread Heidi Estrin
Adaire, thank you so much for your years of dedication to AJL. You've been a 
mainstay of the organization for so long (it was way back in 1994 that you 
received the Fanny Goldstein Merit Award!) that it's hard to imagine AJL 
without you. We wish you the best in your new life in Israel, and hope you will 
stay in touch through Hasafran, Facebook, or by any means necessary!

With ridiculous amounts of respect and gratitude,
Heidi

Heidi Estrin
President, AJL

Adaire,
You were one of the first AJLies that I contacted when I became a Judaic 
librarian.  I found your number in Margot Berman's book HOW TO START A JEWISH 
LIBRARY.  You gave me advice that was very helpful. 
Todah rabbah and see you next year in Jerusalem (when I visit).
Please send us your contact info when you settle.
