YIVO, founded in 1925 in Wilno (Vilnius), is a center for
scholarship on East European Jewish history, language, and culture.
During the 1920s and early 1930s a network of YIVO affiliates was
established across Europe and the Americas including one in New
York, which became the institute's new home when YIVO was
reestablished in 1940 by members of its board who had escaped from
Nazi-occupied Europe.
This is the first repository-level finding aid to the archives
(over 1,400 collections) of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research
in New York. It includes a brief history of the institute and
archives, descriptive entries on each collection, a detailed index
of key words and subject headings, and information on the archive's
basic services.
