The Mass Jewish Migration Database (MJMD) records are based on the applications of Jewish emigrants who applied to the JCA & ITO's information bureaux which were scattered all over the Pale of Settlement in the Russian Empire in the early twentieth century. The MJMD includes records of applications between 1904 and 1914 only. The JCA database is composed of over 3,000 applications of Jews who not only applied to one of the information bureaux in the 'Pale' but also migrated to one of the destination countries overseas (U.S.A, Argentina, Canada, South Africa and Palestine). The ITO's database is composed of about 5,000 Jews who migrated to Galveston port under the shelter of the Jewish Territorialism Organization (ITO). In particular, the MJMD aims to understand the causes, characteristics and patterns of the Jewish Migration in the early twentieth century. In addition, the MJMD enables, via search engine, to look for relatives who possibly migrated through the two information bureaux. The MJMD was built by Dr. Gur Alroey, a lecturer in the Department of Israel Studies at the University of Haifa. The MJMD was produced and built under the University of Haifa Data Archive (UHDA). The UHDA promotes, preserves and disseminates databases and research projects of academic interest.

The World Union of Jewish Studies in cooperation with Yad-Vashem, The Claims Conference, and The Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport, with the support of several other institutions and organization, has initiated and founded the project "LEKKET" which presents before scholars and students a collection of basic articles on the subject of Jewish Studies. All the articles were selected and classified by academic committees from the different research fields of Jewish studies. The progress of this project is dependent upon the financial support of different institutions. We hope that within several years we will create a data base containing thousand of articles and thus serve as an important research tool for each and every scholar of Jewish studies. The website is presented both in Hebrew and in English, for the benefit of the scholars and students in the world, and is open to the use of the public, free of charge.

The Central Database of Shoah Victims' names is an international undertaking led by Yad Vashem, from Jerusalem. It is the attempt to reconstruct the names and life stories of all the Jews who perished in the Shoah. It is the final act of respect that we can show them. It is a duty we must fulfill. The database is incomplete. As of the winter of 2004, we estimate that the number of Jews commemorated in it is close to three million. Millions of names that appear in a wide variety of historical documents have not yet been identified or recorded in the database; many additional names still linger only in the memories of survivors or in the lore of their families. Building the database is a work in progress. Currently the Central Database of Shoah Victims' names is built on three types of sources: Pages of Testimony Historical documentation Local commemoration projects
