Archives in the News: The YIVO Institute

Anne Applebaum, an op-ed columnist in the Washington Post, posted the following in the paper on Tuesday, An Archives With Tales to Tell. The piece detailed the work of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research, which has discovered letters from Otto Frank, Anne Frank's father, in their archives.

Here is the press release detailing the find.

This is a great story for the profession and promotes the work we do. All archives have good stuff in their somewhere and it's just up to us to go and find it.

Let's get back to work!
