Shalom,
The "Yizkor Books In Print Project" is looking for about 5 volunteers to help process images for new books to be published. The volunteers should have Photoshop or similar software to be able to open PDF files with images, copy and crop the images of photographs, illustrations, maps and create JPEG files of the individual images, so that they can be inserted into the text files by our layout volunteers. If you can devote a minimum of an hour or two a week to help with this project, please contact Joel Alpert, Coordinator of the Yizkor Books in Print Project whose address can be found at http://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/ybip.html Background: We are fortunate to have just reached an agreement with the National Yiddish Book Center in Holyoke, MA and the New York Public Library, for use of their PDF files of high resolution scanned images of photos and maps and illustrations of their huge collection of Yizkor Books. This will insure high quality reproduction of the images >from the original Yizkor Books. All the best, Lance Ackerfeld Yizkor Book Project Manager
