Greetings, 

Thanks for your patience while we finalized the schedule. Below is our list
of books and discussion leaders for the spring semester. All of the meetings
are on Thursdays at 7:00 pm at the National Yiddish Book Center.

Along with the good news of having a schedule in place, I can share the
equally exciting news that through the good offices of Nora Gerard, all of
the texts for the spring can be purchased at a 20% discount at the NYBC's
Bookstore.

We're looking forward to seeing all of you soon! And please share this list
with all who might be interested!

Best,

Jim Kelly and Nora Gerard
