Come connect with other AJS members with an interest in rabbinic literature. This is a chance to help identify potential themes and topics for the call for papers, and also share ideas about other modalities for sessions (pedagogy workshops; new research technology workshops; and more). It’s also never too early to start finding a partner for next year’s panel.
