Title

Pandemic Religion: A Digital Archive

Description

A collecting project that is actively receiving contributions of digital material from religious communities and from individuals. Asking for contributions mostly with attention to how religious practice has changed, communications within religious communities, and decisions made by these communities. Users can submit via an online form that captures information about the file as well, including date of creation, specific religious community and denomination, and location. The general public can view material that has been designated by the contributor and by staff review as fit for publication; other material will be available only to researchers. Collaboration with Jewish archives, including Yeshiva University, Capital Jewish Museum, and William Breman Jewish Heritage Museum.
