The Mazal Holocaust Collection is a Holocaust-related archive at the University of Colorado Boulder in Boulder, Colorado, U.S. ContentThe Mazal Holocaust Collection is the largest privately owned Holocaust-related archive in the world.[1] It comprises 500,000 items, including 20,000 books.[2] Some of its items include aerial photographs of the Auschwitz concentration camp and transcripts of the Nuremberg Trials.[2] Additionally, it includes old copies of Der Stürmer, books of Holocaust denial, and material published by the American Nazi Party in the 1930s.[2] As of March 2015, the full extent of the collection was unknown.[2] HistoryThe collection was established by Harry W. Mazal, a businessman of Turkish-Jewish descent who was born in Mexico City, Mexico and subsequently lived in San Antonio, Texas.[2][3] Mazal only found out he was Jewish as a teenager, and he began collecting documents related to the Holocaust then.[2] His primary aim was to counter the discourse of Holocaust deniers.[4] In 2011, Mazal discovered one of his employees was stealing and selling some of his collection; the thief was sentenced to eight years in prison in 2014.[5] With the help of Professor David Shneer, it has been based at the University of Colorado Boulder since January 2014.[1] Students act as volunteers to categorize and digitalize the collection.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite web|title=The Mazal Holocaust Collection|url=http://www.colorado.edu/jewishstudies/archives/post-holocaust-american-judaism-archive/mazal-holocaust-collection|website=University of Colorado Boulder|accessdate=June 22, 2016}} {{University of Colorado Boulder}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Mazal Holocaust Collection}}{{Colorado-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite news|last1=Heilman|first1=Uri|title=After intrigue, theft and deterioration, Holocaust collection secure at CU Boulder|url=http://www.jta.org/2015/03/09/news-opinion/united-states/after-intrigue-theft-and-deterioration-holocaust-collection-secure-at-cu-boulder|accessdate=June 22, 2016|work=Jewish Telegraphic Agency|date=March 9, 2015}} 3. ^{{cite news|last1=Ayala|first1=Elaine|title=Mazal created widely used library in S.A.|url=http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/article/He-created-widely-used-library-in-S-A-2136383.php|accessdate=June 22, 2016|work=San Antonio Express-News|date=August 23, 2011}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Holocaust Denial on Trial: Harry Mazal, The Holocaust History Project|url=http://www.hdot.org/en/learning/podcasts/mazal.html|website=Emory University|accessdate=June 22, 2016}} 5. ^{{cite news|last1=Danner|first1=Patrick|title=Man gets eight years for stealing Holocaust documents|url=http://www.expressnews.com/news/local/article/Man-gets-eight-years-for-stealing-Holocaust-5568603.php#/0|accessdate=June 22, 2016|work=San Antonio Express-News|date=June 20, 2014}} 4 : University of Colorado Boulder|Libraries in Colorado|Jewish libraries|Holocaust-related organizations |
