Relevant archival collections in New York City include: the Center for Jewish History (American Jewish Historical Society, American Sephardi Federation, Leo Baeck Institute, Yeshiva University Museum, and the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research); the Jewish Labor Committee Collection (Robert F. Wagner Archives, New York University Library); Yeshiva University Archives; the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee archives; the archives of the American Jewish Committee; the archives of UNRRA; among other resources. Relevant archival collections at USHMM include: oral histories, music, film, and photo archives, and the more than 60 million pages of archival documentation.� USHMM archival resources pertinent to the topic include: the archives of Jewish communities throughout Europe; records of Jewish immigration and settlement (for example: Latin America, Shanghai, North Africa, South Africa, Canada, the United States, and countries throughout Europe); records of Jewish organizations with offices throughout the world; and many other collections and resources relating to the transnational movement and attempted survival of Jews during this period.� The Museum also provides access to the newly released International Tracing Service Archive, which includes over 50 million pages of documentation on the fate of Jewish and non-Jewish survivors and victims, including extensive information on displaced persons.� Applicants should consult the Archival Guide to the Collections on the Center's home page at www.ushmm.org/research/center for additional resources pertinent to their specific project.
