Much has been written about the subject of genealogy and much more is "waiting to happen". This web page contains books, newspapers, films, magazines and library information pertaining to the history of Jewish genealogy. I have tried to make all of the information available, though you may have to write directly to the publisher, or visit a loan library to read the actual book or periodical. You can also click on any of the noted web sites which will help you determine the availability and lowest pricing structure for specific books. Some of these books are sold through affiliate programs and a commission for the sale is paid to the webmaster which helps maintain this site. 

There is no extra cost to you. These items can be ordered right over the internet and will be sent directly to you. This is a win-win situation. Just click on the Amazon.com logo below ... you have nothing to lose and so much to gain!  Now you can find books, CDs and other materials relating to your research easier by just clicking here > Jewish Genealogy

If you are looking for a rare or out-of-print book, try any of the sources listed below for assistance. Often, asking your local library may be helpful. It is possible that either a main or University library, or some other source can supply a book on loan, rather than having to buy a book, file or microfilm. Check also with the Family History Center Library and your local Jewish Genealogy Society's libraries. Some have very extensive holdings.

http://books.google.com has digitized fully many books of potential interest to Jewish genealogists, and recently began allowing downloads of PDFs of books that are no longer protected by copyright.  Among these is "The Chronicles of Emanu-El: Being an Account of the Rise and Progress of the Congregation Emanu-El which was Founded in July, 1850," by Jacob Voorsanger, 1900, available at
http://books.google.com/books?id=krKAlAydrw8C

Included is a list of the congregation's officers during 1865-1900, and a list of
members on 1 Dec 1900.  Browsers in the U.S. should be able to download the
book by clicking the "Download" button on the right side of the above web page,
or view it as a series of page-by-page scans by clicking the thumbnail of the
first page on the right, but browsers from some other countries might not be able
to download or view the book, depending on local copyright law (apparently).
