The e-Guide:

Many of the documents held in Arolsen are of an administrative nature and are not self-explanatory. In order to enable relatives and users to understand the meaning of the documents used in the camp system, an interactive e-Guide has been developed, which explains common documents types. The first part of the e-Guide supplied information on concentration camp documents. The second part, which is now online, focuses on documents about people who were looked after by the Allies as survivors of Nazi persecution during the period after 1945. The third and final part of the e-Guide will focus on the documents on Eastern and Western European forced laborers. This will be rolled out at the end of 2020. Documents described by the e-Guide link directly to it at: https://eguide.its-arolsen.org/en/
