Archives Curator: Building Blocks and Jewish People

archives curator: The title of the book translates to Statistics, Media, and Organizations of Jewry in the United States and Canada, and it was unveiled to media in Ottawa on Wednesday, according to CTV. It's an in depth statistical report or census, of the American and Canadian Jewish communities, said Michael Kent, Library and Archives curator of the Jacob M. Lowry Collection. Those who procured it say the information within the book would have likely been the building blocks for Hitler to carry out his Final Solution plan for eradication of all Jewish people in North America had the Nazis won the Second World War. This Judaic collection includes other important holocaust remembrance items. He and Kent went on to acknowledge that, while the item may contentious, they defend its acquisition as key to a full historical picture of the realities of the Second World War, Hitler's rule and the Holocaust. Librarian and Archivist of Canada Guy Berthiaume began the unveiling event stating that historical significance does not come with caveats. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
