Here is the Press Release I sent out to advertise our Library Snapshot Day.
Press Release For Immediate Release The Meyers Library of Reform Congregation Keneseth Israel in Elkins Park will hold a Library Snapshot Day on Sunday morning November 7. The featured event of the morning is a presentation by local author, Linda Nesvisky. She will share writer's secrets from her newly published book "Jewish Philadelphia: A Guide to its Sights and Stories" at 10 am in the Meyers Library of the Congregation. Nesvisky, a KI member and well respected local tour guide knows the hotspots and hidden gems of Jewish Philadelphia. Jewish Exponent, Literary Editor, Robert Leiter in reviewing the book said: "I have a soft spot for books like Jewish Philadelphia, works that allow you to "travel" -- even through the byways and side streets of familiar terrain -- without ever leaving homeĀ . (It is) knowledgeable, easy to digest and functional in the best sense of that word. "(July 22, 2010). Books will be available for purchase at this program. Other activities for both children and adults include a display in the Meyers Library of "It's All About Jewish Books: Jewish Book Reports" prepared by the Religious School and Pre-School students and interviews with a Roving Reporter for individuals to share their favorite Jewish Books on video. Adults can participate in a "Jewish Literature Quiz" where they compete against other congregants to win a prize in either the Basic or Advance Quiz. Religious School Students will play educational Literary Computer Games in the Computer lab. The Meyers Library is joining The Association of Jewish Libraries in celebrating Library Snapshot Day.
