Correspondence primarily regarding the procurement and sending of published as well as unpublished material. The latter includes, for instance, a YIVO request for Warsaw Ghetto photographs from The Wiener Library’s photo archive (1962). A further recurring subject is The Wiener Library’s involvement in a joint documentary project of YIVO and Yad Vashem, a bibliographical series on published and archival source material on the Holocaust starting in 1954.
