The Association of Jewish Libraries will hold their next conference June 17-19 in Woodland Hills, Ca.

The Association promotes Jewish literacy through enhancement of libraries and library resources and through leadership for the profession and practitioners of Judaica librarianship. The Association fosters access to information, learning, teaching and research relating to Jews, Judaism, the Jewish experience and Israel. AJL membership is open to individuals and libraries, library workers, library supporters and book lovers.

Their Tuesday keynote luncheon speaker will be Russian-born author and artist Eugene Yelchin, a 2018 National Book Award finalist. Featured among the many Tuesday sessions will be presentations on research skills for high schools, some well-known literary stars of the Los Angeles Persian Jewish community (including author Gina Nahai), and teaching the Holocaust through art.
