Thank you for telling it truthfully because it was off the wall violence

Amy, do you have the 1st edition? If so keep that and do not buy the 2nd
edition. If you don't have any Encyclopedia Judaica go ahead. But the
first edition is far superior and my library owns both. My two cents,

I converted from a highly antiquated system to Alexandria years ago and don't
remember much about the process but I can say how much I love Alexandria! I
never had a problem and the support is outstanding.

huge budgets for ordering books. It is available on Amazon where you can

The books will go to the first five respondents. Racelle will pay the

Amazon for $6.99!
A non-fiction follow up would be Jonathan Sarna's excellent book *When
Grant Expelled the Jews* but I don't think it is in paper back as yet.

A general note: Rutu Modan's new book *The Property* is outstanding and a
strong recommendation for libraries that carry Jewish graphic novels. It
would not be of interest, however, to elementary school age readers but
very suitable for teens and adults.
topic that you think might interest your colleagues would be most
welcome. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
