How The Cybrary is Organized
Welcome to the Cybrary at remember.org
The Cybrary is organized into six separate sections. We are doing our best to organizeand deliver the information you ask for. Many have requested a search capability here, but thatis beyond our economic and sleep deprivation means. So we focus on the human element, a circleof moderators who run their own section and invite your feedback. These are the six sections:
Home Page || Children of… || Imagine || Books by… || Images || Education
Cybrary of the Holocaust Home Page
Moderator: Michael Declan Dunn
Our new logo has five buttons which may be selected on the graphic itself; these buttons are the major sections within the Cybrary. Look for thesebuttons when entering a different section, and always remember to return to the home page if you get lost. The home page is where the text-based Learning Materials can be found. Here you canread Gary Grobman’s important Holocaust education program, read survivors interviews, andlearn. It is separated into three sections:
- Facts
- Witnesses
- Historical Perspectives
You may also access our Links page and The Empty Mirror, our feedback sections,from the home page. We also have our guestbook for you to contact us at.

The Imagine Art Gallery has four sections, with almost 50 paintings and many poemsby a group of sixth graders. Their teacher, Anne Williams, shows them how imaginationis the key to learning. She uses this to help her students learn and express theirlearning experiences. One of the most moving parts of the Cybrary.
Books By Survivors
Moderators: Harold Gordon, Joey Korn, Sidney Iwens and Leon Tabory
Books by Survivors was started by Harold Gordon in July 1995 to share his book, The Last Sunrise. This section includes excerpts, pictures, stories, and a chanceto email survivors, as well as the opportunity to purchase the books and helpthe survivors share their stories. Now we have three books online:
- The Last Sunrise by Harold Gordon

This section develops each month and we hope to be adding more books. The entirebook, How Dark the Heavens, will eventually be put online.
