If content is a precondition for continuity, then the Yiddish Book Center is in a position to help reshape Jewish life for years to come. In this lively presentation followed by an even livelier Q&A and discussion Aaron Lansky, the Centers founder and president, shares bold new plans for the coming decade and beyond. Among the highlights are a Universal Yiddish Library and a far-reaching initiative to repatriate Jews with their own literature and culture.
