This month’s collection is dedicated to the Ada Aharoni Collection, From the Digital Heritage Archive of Egyptian Jewry in the library. The archive operates under the academic auspices of the Joseph & Racheline Barda Chair for the Study and Research of Jewish Heritage In Egypt, as well as of the Center for the Study of the Jews of Spain and Islamic Lands: Past and Present.
Following the political changes in Egypt, the Aharoni family left their home and immigrated to Israel, along with thousands of other Jews. Their family photographs have thus become a rare testament to a vibrant and thriving Jewish community that once flourished in Egypt.
