A book fair featuring a wide variety of Hebrew and English books published in Israel, was opened here last night in the Jewish Agency building.
Books on exhibit range from modern textbooks for the study of the Hebrew language and collections of modern Hebrew poetry through works on Jewish history and philosophy to pictorial encyclopaedias of the Bible and writings on the latest archaeological findings in the Middle East.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
