תיאור
The collection contains various Jewish-related documents of the Vilnius Town Office including lists, circulars, reports, applications, correspondence, notifications, receipts, minutes and regulations. There are numerous files on Jewish political, cultural, economic, and public organizations, units, associations, societies, and committees. The materials contain data on the organizations’ founders, aims, structure and number of members. These files can be sub-divided into the following groups: charitable, professional, political, veteran, cultural (including the Jewish Theater, Jewish Music Institute and the Union of Jewish Writers and Journalists in Vilnius), scientific, religious, sport (''Makabi'', ''Hapoel'' and ''Żaks''), financial (such as interest-free loans society "Achdus"), and women's organizations. Files on charity organizations includes information on EKOPO, Association for Aid to Jews Emigrating to Palestine, and mutual aid societies. Files of professional organizations include documents relating to associations for traders, craftsmen, engineers, doctors, journalists, teachers and artists. Files on political groups include documents on Zionist organizations (including “Zeire Zion” and “Chejrut u-Tchijo") and communists. For example, there are reports on surveillance for many communist activists (among them Ezro Ofman in 1924 and Lejzer Kapłan in 1934). Numerous documents relate to Jewish education. For instance, there are materials from 1924-1939 about the Jewish Education Committee in Vilnius (including its statute, lists of the board and members, information about members, reports on its activities), "Waad Hameuchad Tachkemoni" from 1926-1936, and records from 1937 on religious "Chinuch - Tora - Zichron Menachem". The collection includes many documents on religious life and synagogues in Vilnius voivodeship. There are records on elections to the board of synagogues, approval of prayer houses’ councils, membership fees in communities and more. The collection includes also numerous files on issuing residence permits to foreigners and stateless persons, passports and certificates to Jewish individuals traveling abroad, and identity cards to residents of the city of Vilnius (Wilno). In addition, the collection is a valuable source for information on the Jewish press. Most of these files relate to specific newspapers.
