Published purpose

The VHEC proposes a multi-year project to migrate catalogue and accession records that describe materials donated by Vancouver-based Holocaust survivors and Jewish refugees imprisoned in Canadian internment camps during WW2, currently described and accessible in a legacy Filemaker Pro database near the end of its lifespan. This project will increase public access to and awareness of catalogue records describing the VHEC’s documentary heritage. As part of this project, the VHEC will enhance the accessibility of five oral histories by producing and uploading time-coded summaries to their testimony catalogue records.
