Dear Tuan,

Thanks.  Cliff is in Ottawa today.  We'll talk over the choices when he
gets back, and I'll email you.

Best, Donna

Dear Jules (and anyone else interested),

Such services already exist. One I used some years ago is Russkii
kur'er:
www.edd.ru (English home page at http://www.edd.ru/eng/e_Home.htm). I
was
completely satisfied with their services and thought the prices
reasonable.
I take their continued existence as a hopeful sign of continued
reliability.
(If anyone else has positive or negative experiences with them, I'd love
to
hear about it offline at powelstock at brandeis.edu. I'll anonymize and
summarize any data I receive for the list.)

Regards to all,
David Powelstock

It has occurred to me that if it is feasible to photocopy pages from
such
materials in Russia (in 1981 I actually was shown a 19th C. St.
Petersburg
address book in the Lenin Library reading room), someone there could
earn
something charging for the service.  I would be happy to post
information on
the Jewishgen list.
