The Arolsen Archives -International Center on
Nazi Persecution- has a call for applications for scholars from The Netherlands
and surrounding countries to attend a research seminar on access to the digital
collections of the archive.
Call for Applications
As part of a broader strategy to
enable and improve access to the entire digital collections, the Arolsen
Archives and the NIOD Institute for War, Holocaust and Genocide Studies are
co-organising an international three-day research seminar for scholars from the
Netherlands and neighbouring countries. The event will take place at
the NIOD in Amsterdam from 29 January through 31 January 2020.
At its core, the seminar will enable participants to carry out their own
research in the digital collections of the Arolsen Archives through a recently
established “remote access” solution. Competent staff on site will provide
guidance in exploring the depths of the digital archive. For this, participants
will have to bring along their personal (portable) computers. Please note that
remote access will only be possible on devices running Microsoft Windows.
Participants will be able to save selected documents of interest free of
charge.
Interested candidates from The
Netherlands and neighbouring countries are encouraged to send their application
via e-mail to requests-rs@arolsen-archives.org.
Applications should consist of a short letter of motivation, a brief
biographical note, and an overview of the project for which you intend to
explore the digital collections of the Arolsen Archives (1-2 pages in
total). The deadline for applications is 16 December 2019. Participants
will be chosen and notified by 20 December 2019.
