A memorial book holds what one community could gather about itself. The assistant reads this record's own source passages and the people and places connected to it, then searches trusted archives — Yad Vashem, USHMM, Arolsen, JewishGen, Virtual Shtetl, YIVO — and shows what it found, with its sources.
Source passages
Each passage remains attached to its exact scan and opens in the standalone evidence reader.
