Exchange with R. Donin about Publishing Piyyutim Pamphlet (1964)
Dear Norm, several years ago, you wrote to me regarding the availability of "Spring Piyutim." I could not use your publication as it did not have the Shachris Yotzros for the Arba Parshiyot. I am interested now in putting together a "piyutim" pamphlet just for our own congregation, to include the Shachris Yotzros as well as additional page instructions that will correspond to the Nusach Sfard siddur which we are now using. Since your booklet was copyrighted, may we have the permission of your congregation to use your English translation. We intend to gratefully acknowledge credit to The Jewish Center and its Rabbis on the preface page. Please advise at your earliest opportunity. I would also appreciate receiving two (2) copies of your Piyutim booklet, for which you may bill me. With many thanks for your cooperation, I remain sincerely yours, Rabbi Hayim Donin
