Boreslav

A youngster from the Hebrew Academy (HAFTR) came over to the Reference desk asking about Boreslav. A reference interview identified him to have been a Polish king in the 1300s. We looked in the OPAC (bibliographic instruction), and found some books on Polish history. She wanted to know about finding scholarly articles. Later, she came over to the desk and showed me a book about Jews written by Simon Dubnov. In it, there is reference made to the charter issued by King Boreslav.
