Library

The VHEC library contains over 4,000 Holocaust related books, journals, videos and DVDs including reference materials, memoirs, fiction, non-fiction, books for young adults and foreign language materials. The teacher resource collection includes teacher guides, curricula and poster sets. The library is open to students, teachers, researchers and the general public for on-site consultation. Only teachers and members of the VHEC may borrow materials.

Wish list

The VHEC library has an online wish list that identifies items we would like for our library collection. If you would like to donate an item that you find on our wish list but do not want to purchase it online, please email the librarian at library@vhec.org or call 604-264-0499 so that we can update the wish list to indicate that the item will be donated by other means (this helps us avoid duplicate donations).

Museum Collection

The VHEC maintains a collection of over 1200 items, including documents, photographs, letters and artefacts. The majority of the collection reflects the experiences of local survivors prior to, during and after the Holocaust. These items are preserved for future generations as documentary evidence of the Holocaust and are used for current educational purposes.
