More than 440 hours of testimonies - representing the library's entire audio collection - is being made available over the internet as part of a publicly funded project to digitise important cultural archives.
The recordings explore the lives of 66 Jewish people before, during and after the Second World War.
Subjects covered include anti-Semitism in the build-up to the war, the ghettos and concentration camps of the war period itself, survival in hiding, and making a new life in Britain.
