Option 1 (led by the Tracing Unit):

This workshop will deal with various ways of searching the holdings of the Arolsen Archives using attributes in OuSArchiv, with a particular focus on using the Central Name Index (CNI) to find relevant documents on individual persons. In small working groups, different CNI cards will be tackled with the assistance from experienced colleagues from the Arolsen Archives.
Option 2 (led by Giora Zwilling):

During the last year, many collections were newly indexed and cataloged in accordance with new standards, while some collections were catalogued for the first time. This workshop ad-dresses how this might alter and in many cases simplify your search strategies.
Option 3 (led by Christian Höschler):

Using documents from the Arolsen Archives for the preparation of memorial site trips in schools is the aim of the documentED project. In this workshop, you can engage in a class-room setting by working with a specially designed “toolkit” containing, among other re-sources, documents on an individual person who was imprisoned by the Nazis in the very place you and your fellow students would be visiting.

Option 1: Searching OuSArchiv using attributes/indexing dataOption 2: Searching archival descriptions and newly indexed collectionsOption 3: Pedagogical workshop on documentED
