This microfilm collection of correspondence between the Far Eastern Jewish Central Information Bureau (DALJEWCIB) and individuals and other Jewish organisations offers a valuable insight into the experiences of German and Austrian Jewish émigrés in the Far East. The personal accounts contain descriptions of the outward-bound voyage and of the climate and conditions in the host country, along with details on obtaining work and accommodation. Note that many of the letters are copies or extracts from originals. Some newsletters and newspapers are also included. 

When the papers were filmed, the original order was retained: 514/I: correspondence arranged according to place of emigration and 514/II: correspondence arranged according to profession. Note that the material is in reverse chronological order within each sub-category.
