Zachary M. Baker completes a six-part research guide

Zachary M. Baker, Reinhard Family Curator of Judaica and Hebraica Collections in the Stanford University Libraries, has completed a six-part research guide, Resources in Yiddish Studies. The research guide was published in installments during the first half of 2017, in the online journal In geveb. He is currently working on a presentation for the conference “Placing the Irreplaceable – Restitution of Jewish Cultural Property,” which will take place in mid-November at the Simon Dubnow Institute at Leipzig University. The title of his presentation (which is based on research in the papers of Salo W. Baron, in the Stanford University Libraries) is “Setting the Stage: Preliminary Efforts by the Commission on European Jewish Cultural Reconstruction to Document Endangered Jewish Cultural Properties.”
