Re: [Cz-L] Deciphering German script

Dear Robert and all,

I agree 100% with Marianne, concerning the preservation of documents,
including letters in any language. I want to suggest another archive: the
"Central Archive for the Jewish People", (CAHJP), located in Jerusalem.
Search google for their site. Here is their email: archives_at_vms.huji.ac.il .
Ithink that those institutes are much better presevation places, with more
visitors and scholars who need them for their researches then the very
important Jewish Museum in Zc.

All the best 0 Miriam, Israel

Dear all,
Mimi's comments about the preservation of documents are crucial. There are
many willing and helpful repositories. The USHolocaust Muesum, Yad Vashem,
and also Leo Baeck Instittute which deals with German-speaking Jews and is a
very good institution. If anyone is interested in donating documents or
copies of documents, you might write to the archivist at Leo Baeck for
advice: Frank Mecklenburg, frank mecklenburg <frankmecklenburg_at_yahoo.com>.
It would be so helpful for future researchers if our Czernowitz documents
stayed together in one repository, but in the internet era they can always
be assembled from different sources.

all best, Marianne
