Appendix

The documentation gathered

Nearly 2,000 documents—originals and exact copies, most dating from the Nazi or immediate postwar period—were produced at the trial. They came from approximately 50 institutions or research centers in around 20 countries, including the German federal archives, US National Archives, Nuremberg trial archives, Yad Vashem, Dutch National War Documentation Institute, Polish, Norwegian, Danish and Czech institutes and the Contemporary Jewish Documentation Centre in Paris-a pioneer that was long alone in Shoah research in France.
