GHIL acquires Refugee Voices
Recent Acquisitions
LIBRARY NEWS
The GHIL library subscribes to a wide range of databases and electronic
journals and constantly tries to make more digital resources
available to its readers. It is therefore with great pleasure that we
announce the acquisition of Refugee Voices, a major audio-visual
archive for the study of the Holocaust and the history of German
refugees to Britain during and after the Second World War. Through
filmed interviews Refugee Voices provides insights into the life stories
of 150 survivors of the Nazi persecutions in Germany who found
refuge in Britain. All interviews can be listened to in one of the
library’s reading rooms. The interviews have been fully transcribed
and extensively catalogued so that they can be searched in various
ways. A fuller account of the making of this unique resource and the
research opportunities it offers is given in the preceding announcement
in this issue of the GHIL Bulletin.
This list contains a selection of recent publications in German and
English, primarily on German history, acquired by the GHIL library
in the past year.
