Things I need for Rabbinical School, but were not "required texts" for class so I don't know how to budget for them

Just saying.

Books:
Introduction to the Talmud – Moses Mielziner
The Practical Talmud Dictionary - Yitzhak Frank
The Talmud: A Reference Guide – Adin Steinsaltz (not to be confused with Essential Talmud by Adin Steinsaltz, which I have)
Encyclopedia Judaica (2007)
JPS Torah Commentary:  Leviticus (JPS, 2003) (or any other volume) - Baruch Levine
Me'am Loez -- 18th c., Yitzhak Magriso; originally written in Ladino; English translation by Aryeh Kaplan, published as "Torah Anthology"
Maimonides
Anything in English by Nechama Leibowitz
Anything by Joseph Telushkin other that Jewish Literacy (which I already have)
The Torah: A Women's Commentary - Edited by Tamara Cohn Eskenazi and Andrea Weiss
The New JPS Hebrew-English Tanakh
New American Haggadah - Jonathan Safran Foer (Author), Nathan Englander (Translator)

Software:
Davka-Writer Hebrew-English word processor
