Another possible source is _The Jewish Time Line Encyclopedia_, although it gives more years than dates and often gives Hebrew dates without the corresponding English ones. A quick glance through reminded me of two important dates : July 4 (1976) - Israeli commandos rescue hostages in Entebbe August 16 (1915) - Leo Frank lynched by mob ***** A related aside : I've always wanted to see a calendar of "Important dates in Judaica Librarianship". Heck, AJL could publish its own calendar and sell it to members (I'd probably buy one myself). I don't know so many dates, though. Maybe someone on a "library history roundtable" could contribute some. April 5 (2004) - firebombing of United Talmud Torah library in Montreal April 18 (1966) - fire at JTS Library May 2 (1963) - establishment of the Judaica Department of the Harvard College Library June 18 (1999) - firebombing of B'nai Israel synagogue library June 19 (1966) - first annual Association of Jewish Libraries convention B'shalom, Steve
