The Yad Vashem Encyclopedia of the Ghettos During the Holocaust
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Yad Vashem Encyclopedia of the Ghettos During the Holocaust (האנציקלופדיה של הגטאות) is an encyclopedia compiled by the International Institute for Holocaust Research at Yad Vashem, under the editorship of Dan Michman. It represents ongoing research on all the Jewish ghettos that existed during the Holocaust. The encyclopedia was first published in English in two volumes in 2009, edited by Guy Miron and Shlomit Shulhani, with the support of the Claims Conference, and contained 1,100 entries. On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, January 27, 2013, the Hebrew version of the encyclopedia was launched on the internet.[1][2]
