Mr. Merkowitz,
The article does not indicate that they digitalized important archival
documents. You are right that I have to accept this reality, but technology has
limitations. I find it hard to imagine future libraries without books.
G’mar Hatimah tovah,
Amalia

Ms.Warshenbrot: I was also disturbed by this article. However,with the
development of electronic devices,paper has become plastic and books have
become ebooks! It's a reality of these rapidly changing times! Gmar Tov. Morton

To all of you who had difficulty finding the article that I referred to. It
appears in the Sep. 28 issue of FORWARD. If you have the paper it is in the
front page. You can’t miss it.
The title is:
Shrinking AJC library sends Trove of books to new homes.
I was relieved to see that our friend Rita Saccal from the Seminario
Rabinico in Buenos Aires, ARGENTINA got many of the treasures.
If you can’t find it I will be happy to scan it and send it to you.
