IADS Library: Samantha Loved Books

IADS Library: Samantha Loved Books

By Margo & Doug Woll

Samantha loved books. All kinds of books. Old books, new books, recycled books, used books, books on Judaism and Jews, books on politics, books on social justice, books on feminism, books on politics, books on urban affairs, books on religions, books on philosophy, self-help books, books to help others, books on virtually any topic. She bought them, borrowed them and discovered them in every nook and corner wherever she found herself. She read many and lovingly shared others. Every book had its home, either with her or her incredible circle of friends. Samantha felt no room was complete without a shelf or two of books. We, Samantha’s family, dedicate some of her most cherished books to honor her memory and her never-ending love of books. We hope you enjoy them as much as she did.
