Dear A.R.T. Members: It is finally summer. We thought it would never arrive this year. That also means that the A.R.T. fiscal year, which runs from July to June, has come to a close, and so has my tenure as president of our great professional organization. Little did I know when I volunteered for the A.R.T. Programming Committee a few years ago that I would end up in a position of leadership, nor that I would learn so much while being a board member. I strongly urge you to consider volunteering for A.R.T Board service. It is an opportunity to utilize skills and expertise outside of the scope of your daily work, connect with fellow archives professionals, develop or hone leadership skills, and network with professionals across A.R.T.’s varied membership and with outside organizations. You will surprise yourself. You will learn something new. It will enhance your career path in ways you would never have imagined. I know I have done all of these things during my three-year board tenure. As I pass the baton to your new President Ryan Anthony Donaldson, I want to thank the A.R.T. Board of Directors and A.R.T. Committees for a wonderful journey. Through your hard work and thoughtful administration A.R.T. has delivered robust programs and educational opportunities, and your support for the initiatives of our volunteer-led organization has made our organization more sustainable. Thank you also to all of our members for your continued support of A.R.T. Your voices — individually and collectively through A.R.T. — create awareness of the archives profession and its importance. Wishing you a wonderful summer. See you next fiscal year! Pamela Cruz President Archivists Round Table of Metropolitan New York, Inc. From the Editor As we emerge from a very long winter, I would like to say happy summer to all. This is the last issue with the current A.R.T. board, and I would like to thank all of the members for their amazing work and for sharing that work in every issue. Balancing one’s professional and personal life and a time- consuming volunteer role is a difficult task, one that our board members have managed fantastically. Many thanks to all, and I look forward to meeting and working with the new members going forward. Thanks to a growing and dedicated membership, Metropolitan Archivist has had more submissions than ever. Submissions from all of our membership, from students to seasoned professionals, are welcome. If you are interested in contributing or have any questions or feedback, please feel free to contact me. I hope you find this issue informative and enriching. Here is to the sunshine ahead. Enjoy!

The conference is organized around four threads of radical archival practice: Archive and Affect, or the embodied archive; Archiving Around Absence, or reading for the shadows; Archives and Ethics, or stealing from and for archives; and Archive as Constellation, or archive as method, medium, and interface.

I would like to thank David Fishman, Dana Herman, and the anonymous readers of American Jewish History for comments on earlier versions of this article. 2. I use the name Lucy Schildkret for anything she wrote prior to her marriage to Szymon Dawidowicz in January of 1948, Lucy S. Dawidowicz after her marriage, and Libe when she or her correspondents wrote in Yiddish. 3. The literature on “intentionalism” — the view that German antisemitism laid the foundation for Hitler’s early and then inexorable design to exterminate European Jewry — is enormous.

    lloyd sealy library Classified Information The Newsletter of the Lloyd Sealy Library Fall 2015 From the Desk of the Chief Librarian Law codes, both penal and civil, rarely make for exciting reading. Just think of spending a pleasant evening brows- ing through the over 13,000-page Internal Revenue Service regulations (Title 26 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations). In France, however, which perhaps is more bureaucratic than the United States, the artist Joseph Hé- mard (1880-1961), a well-known French book illustrator, decided to satirize a number of French statutes through his amusing, mildly erotic drawings. In his work, Hémard used the pochoir (stencil) technique, which is a hand-col- ored illustration process that began in the 15th century for playing cards and the occasional woodcut. Having fallen out of use for centuries, the French revived the technique in the late 19th century. The handwork that produces the brilliantly colored illustrations is very costly and rarely used in the book printing process. The Sealy Library was fortunate to obtain two rare edi- tions of these works: Code Pénal (late 1920s) and Code Civil: Livre Premier, Des Personnes.... (1925). The latter pokes fun at a number of laws including divorce, pater- nity, adoption, and paternal authority (e.g., Article 371), which states, “The infant at any age must honor and re- spect his mother and father.” Article 378 mandates that the father alone exercises authority over the child during the marriage and until the child reaches his or her major- ity (18 years). The illustrations comically make such regu- lations clear and accessible to the reader.
