Dear colleagues, Dear Judaica librarians,
we are pleased to announce that we published the 10.000^th title of the
“Freimann Collection”
(http://sammlungen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/freimann/nav/index/all):
This collection comprises the literature of Science of Judaism
(Wissenschaft des Judentums) in European languages and is part of the
historic Judaica collection. It was created at the end of the 19th
century through generous donations of Frankfurt Jewish philanthropists.
Professor Dr. Aron Freimann, long-time curator until 1933, formed it
into the most significant Judaica collection of the European continent
before World War II. In 1932 a catalog of all titles was published,
reprinted in 1968 as bibliography thus compiling the complete historic
literature of Wissenschaft des Judentums.
Due to National Socialism and the Second World War the collection
suffered partial losses and is no longer complete.
This portal aims to create a complete digital collection of the historic
resources by complementing it with digital facsimiles of the missing
titles from other libraries all over the world. The database offers
various search options, downloading and printing of the texts.
The project was sponsored by the German Research Foundation (DFG) in the
years of 2007-2010 and carried out in cooperation with Prof. Dr. Hans
Otto Horch, former Professor at the Lehr- und Forschungsgebiet
Europäisch-Jüdische Literatur- und Kulturgeschichte at the RWTH Aachen
University. Various libraries have contributed digital facsimiles to the
portal.
Since 2011 the project continues in cooperation with the Center for
Jewish History / Leo Baeck Institute in New York and is sponsored by the
German Research Foundation (DFG) and the National Endowment of the
Humanities (NEH).
