- As always, I highly recommend the YU To Go essays, that you can find here. You can find a wealth of audio and text shiurim here.
- The OU will have live Kinnot webcasts throughout the day, first by Rabbi Dr. Tzvi Hersh Weinreb, and then (starting at 1 pm from LA) by Rabbi Steven Weil.
- OU Press has released a Kinnot, translated by Rabbi Weinreb, and with commentary from the Rav. You can find excerpts here.
