The Cleveland Jewish Archives collects and makes available for research print and non-print material that documents the history of the Jewish community of Greater Cleveland. The Cleveland Jewish Archives houses over two hundred manuscript collections consisting of personal papers of individuals and families, Holocaust testimonies, and institutional records including those of businesses, congregations, and educational, political, social, charitable, and welfare organizations. Materials include items such as minutes, letters, ledgers, photographs, tapes and films, books, and newspapers.
Many items from the Archives’ holdings are on permanent display at the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage as part of a unique collaborative relationship between the WRHS and the
Maltz
Museum.
