To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, the ShabbaTones choir of North Central Florida will perform music composed in the ghettos and camps of WW2. The Price Library of Judaica will also contribute a small display of rare books on music and art by victims and survivors. The guest MC is David Snyder of WCJB TV, and Price Library curator, Rebecca Jefferson, will give a brief talk.

Thanks to the Judaica Library’s ongoing partnership with Ariel Abramovich, an Argentinian journalist and editor, and various Jewish institutions and publishers in Argentina, we can now offer online open access to previously inaccessible historical issues of the Jewish journal, Mundo Israelita. Originally founded in 1923 by Salvador Kibrick and Samuel Resnick, this important newspaper was the first Spanish weekly for the Argentine Jewish community.

Thanks to generous support from the Shorstein Family Foundation, we have been able to digitize sections of the Jacksonville Jewish Center Archives. The digital collection includes photographs, yearbooks, A/V material, and other records belonging to the Center charting its history and growth from the 1920s to present day.
