HIST 4338 Holocaust

The Holocaust Cybrary is a collection of resources including recommendations of other resources, discussion lists of researchers and survivors, and numerous audio and video files including interviews with survivors and the liberators of the camps.

The Holocaust Chronicle Web site contains every word and a generous selection of images from the companion book of the same title, a massive, not-for-profit volume conceived and published by Chicago-based Publications International, Ltd. Information found on this Web site has been gathered and fact-checked by top Holocaust scholars.

Around five million victims were not Jewish. This site explores the make up of that population, including the disabled, homosexuals, Catholics, Gypsies, and other races and populations the Nazis disliked. This site explores their stories and how the horrific camps and killings impacted their peoples' history.

The testimonies on this site are drawn from a major oral history programme – The Living Memory of the Jewish Community – which between 1987 and 2000 gathered 186 audio life story interviews with Jewish survivors of the Holocaust and their children.

This archives is a collection of more than 4,400 videotaped interviews with winesses and survivors of the Holocaust. Segments of some interviews are available online.

The mission of the Museum is to educate people of all ages and backgrounds about the broad tapestry of Jewish life in the 20th and 21st centuries—before, during, and after the Holocaust.
