We are always eager to receive new translations. Please consider
translating a chapter >from a Pinkas HaKehillot volume or engaging
someone to translate it. We also need tables of contents translated
for many of the Pinkasim. Each volume covers a specific geographical
area: Germany, Greece, Hungary, Latvia & Estonia, Libya, Lithuania,
Netherlands, Poland (7 volumes), Romania (2 volumes), Slovakia,
Yugoslavia. There is a separate "chapter" for each town. Contact me
privately if you have any qustions.

Please also check the fundraising projects at
http://www.jewishgen.org/JewishGen-erosity/v_projectslist.asp?project_cat=23.
Funds raised pay for the translation of these important volumes.
Without financial assistance these books will not be translated.
