There is nothing more I can add to what has already been written about her.We will all miss her. She was always so nice to everybody. It was a pleasure for me to speak with her every year during conventions. She was always concerned about Jewish life in Argentina.

She will be missed by all of us who have known her, especially by the students, those she mentored, along with her colleagues,and most of all by her family, who she loved to talk about, supported and loved.May her memory be for a blessing and may her deeds continue to influence others for years to come.Chaim KlineOn May 5, 2019, at 9:04 AM, Paul Glassman via Hasafran <hasafran@lists.osu.edu> wrote:Dear colleagues,I'm very sad to report that Leah Adler, Head Librarian of Hebraica-Judaica at Yeshiva University, died this weekend after an illness that she managed quietly and successfully until recently. The funeral will be in Israel, and the flight to Israel is today. As plans for a memorial at the Gottesman Library of Hebraica-Judaica materialize, we'll send out a notice. Throughout her illness, rather than talk about herself and her physical discomfort, Leah expressed concern for others--about the effect of her absence on their work loads. In the workplace, Leah was always disarmingly candid and honest; she never hesitated to bring up important issues, regardless of how challenging those issues were. After decades of service, Leah seems inseparable from the history of Yeshiva University Libraries. We all share in mourning her loss.
