• Passover is upon us
In the spirit of the upcoming Passover we have decided to our LEKET articles from magazines that do not usually included in it. The Leket will therefore include articles from the following magazines:
a. Gan Vanof – A monthly for horticulture and Le-gananut Ve-nof
b. Baiit Chadash – Magazine Israeli Le-itsuv
c. Chaiot Ve-chevrah (the Israeli magazine for the connection between people and animals).
d. Bitaon Cheil-Haavir.
Those of you who are not subscribers and are interested in the holiday Leket – please advise Mirit at the Library in Netanya.

• CD's
One of the more significant advantages of producing books on CDs is being able to duplicate many CDs at a relative low cost per book-on-CD.
Once in a while the lending department initiates the duplication of hundreds for best-sellers which are then sent to the readership at the librarians' discretion. These books are not borrowed in the conventional way and therefore sometimes are not deleted from your ordering list. If the book has been ordered before it may be mailed to you again. Your understanding is appreciated. Should this happen kindly return the book to the library as soon as possible.

• Braillon Paper
The last shipment of Braillon paper ordered by the Library specifically for the replication of Math books by means of Perkins machines was faulty. The company has agreed to reimburse us by sending a new shipment. Since the paper is suitable for other uses in Perkins machines we have distributed it among grade school pupils and students.

• Children's Books
The books Kelev Raa Marly by John Grogen, Irmiyahu Hechatul by Michal Snunit, Sipurim Chachamim Leyeladim by Shlomo Abbas have been distributed among our young readership.
These books have been contributed by the committee of VRIENDEN VAN DE BLINDEN-BIBLIOTHEEK STICHTING IN SRAËL
Anyone else interested in these books should please call the library.
I hope you continue to enjoy reading.


Our best wishes to you and yours for Passover

Uri Cohen, Director
And the entire library staff
