New Books for the Conference
JGSLA members, Madeleine and Jerry Isenberg, have recently donated a total of 94 books to our library collection which they “rescued” from the now closed Jewish Community Library. Many of them will be available to our members for the first time at the conference. Some of them may be helpful for your research.Amongst the titles are:
- Canadian Jewry Today: Who’s Who in Canadian Jewry
Edmond Y Lipsitz, ed. 1989 - A Time To Remember: Growing up in New York Before the Great War
Marie Jastrow 1979 - Jewish Notables in America 1776 – 1865
