Resources for International Holocaust Remembrance Day

In 2005, the United Nations General Assembly designated January 27 as International Holocaust Remembrance Day, a memorial day for the victims of the Jewish Holocaust.

GALILEO provides several resources with images, videos, articles, and more to help us remember the events of that time.

Encyclopædia Britannica offers a special spotlight titled Reflections on the Holocaust with encyclopedia articles, images, videos, educational materials, and much more.

History Reference Center includes articles as well as historical images and videos related to the Jewish Holocaust. Readers can also search for topics such as Auschwitz, Nuremberg Trials, or Adolf Hitler to learn more about the places, events, and people related to this time in history.

For book recommendations, search NoveList for Jewish Holocaust to find books for all ages. The NoveList editors also offer suggested book lists for grades 3-5, grades 6-8, teens, and adults as well as a list of picture books for grades 3-8.
