SUMMARY:Testifying to the Truth: Archival Discovery Workshop for Postgraduate Students
DESCRIPTION:Part I: Introductory Session: Tuesday 23 March 2021\, 2-3pm\nPart II: Flash Presentations & Discussion: Tuesday 30 March 2021\, 2-3.30pm\n\nLibrarian in the Reading Room at The Wiener Library in Devonshire Street\, c. 1950-1959. Wiener Holocaust Library Collections. \nThe Wiener Holocaust Library was pleased to hold a two-part archival discovery workshop centred on its new digital resource\, Testifying to the Truth\, which features more than 1\,000 eyewitness accounts of refugees and survivors of the Holocaust\, newly digitised and translated into English for the first time. The resource will continue to grow as more accounts are translated and published online. We welcomed applications from teaching or research university faculty at any career stage who were interested in learning more about this collection and incorporating the materials into their teaching or research in a variety of disciplines\, including but not limited to Holocaust and genocide studies\, history\, digital humanities\, sociology\, oral history\, anthropology and linguistics. \nThe workshop featured an introductory hands-on navigation and framing session co-led by Dr Christine Schmidt\, Deputy Director and Head of Research\, Leah Sidebotham\, Digital Asset Manager\, and Dr Madeline White (Royal Holloway\, University of London). Participants were then invited to present their findings a week later for discussion. \nWatch back now:\nThe first session of this workshop is available to watch via The Wiener Holocaust Library’s YouTube page. \n \n

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT Virtual Workshop: Thinking through the Library’s Eyewitness Accounts of Jewish Resistance in Belgium
DESCRIPTION:Survivor accounts from the Library’s digital database. \nIn this workshop\, the Library’s Senior Curator and Head of Education\, Dr Barbara Warnock\, will present recent findings from research conducted into the Library’s eyewitness accounts of Jewish resistance in Belgium\, and explore with workshop participants the significance of the documents both as evidence of anti-Nazi resistance\, and as evidence of the post-war efforts to document the Holocaust. \nThese documents\, gathered as part of a research project launched by the Library’s Head of Research Dr Eva Reichmann in 1954\, are a small but important subsection of the Library’s substantial collection of eyewitness accounts of the Holocaust. With reports from some of the leading figures in Belgian resistance and in child rescue in Belgium\, the documents provide insights into many topics\, including the background and motivations of resisters; the central role of women in resistance; the operation of child rescue networks; the extent of collaboration between Jewish resistance networks and other groups and individuals in Belgium; details of the effects of their experiences on the resisters\, and the dangers that they faced. The reports also reflect the methods and assumptions that governed The Wiener Library’s project to gather documentation from survivors and eyewitnesses of the Nazi era and the Holocaust. \nEvent guidelines \n1. The Library will send you a Zoom link and joining instructions via email before the event. Please do check your junk folders. \n2. Please try and join 5 minutes before the event start time (12.55) and we will let you into the room (do try and bear with us if this takes a few minutes).
