Abstract:
- These two-part alphabetical undated name registers of residents of the Lodz Ghetto are just a small part of a very large collection of scanned documents of the Lodz Ghetto, including some with personal photos and vital records such as birth, death and marriage certificates, which are now viewable online at http://szukajwarchiwach.pl/39/278/0#tabSerie. It is not clear to what extent these records may be duplicated by the holdings of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum Archive's similar collection titled, "Przelozony Starszenstwa Zydow w Getcie Lódzkim [Der Aelteste der Juden vom Litzmannstadt-Getto = The Elder of the Jews in the Lódz ghetto]" (USHMM RG-15.083M, Accession No. 2000.126).
- Name entries in these two-part registers are alphabetical and include surname, forename and a numerical reference which may reference a file, dossier or some other identifying number.

Resource Center Cataloging Notes:
This resource was identified and described on June 6, 2014 on the JewishGen Discussion Group Listserv (see: http://www.jewishgen.org/JewishGen/DiscussionGroup.htm) by Mr. Logan Kleinwaks, who also kindly provided the following guide to using these Polish-language resources for speakers of English:
1) Visit the overview list of documents at http://szukajwarchiwach.pl/39/278/0#tabSerie.
2) Identify a group of documents of interest by looking at the title in the second column from the left (e.g., "Referat Kart Tozsamosci"), the date range in the second column from the right (e.g., "1940-1944"), and the number of scans currently online in the last column on the right. If the last column is a 0, there are no scans online for that group.
3) Click on the title of the group of interest.
4) On the next page that is displayed, there will be a similar overview list for this group, with titles, dates, and numbers of scans (this list might extend over more than one page). As in steps 2 and 3, identify a group of documents of interest and click the title of the group.
5) On the next page that is displayed, click on the tab called "Skany," "Scans," or "Digital copies," which should be to the right of the red tab.
6) You should now see thumbnail images of several scans. There is a dropdown menu just above the thumbnails that determines how many thumbnails are displayed per page, defaulting to 15. You might want to change this to the maximum, 100.
7) To enlarge a thumbnail so you can read what is in the image, click on the thumbnail and a larger -- but not yet full-size -- image will pop up. This is sometimes sufficient for you to determine whether the image is of interest, e.g., when browsing through images looking for a specific surname, or when trying to find records from around a specific date.
8) In the bottom right of the larger image's pop-up are two icons in white on black circular backgrounds -- one a rectangle with marks at the corners and the other a "z." To view the full-size image, click the rectangle icon. Another window should pop up, probably without any image initially. Wait, and the full-size image should appear within about a minute. The image might be too big to be displayed all at once, in which case you can move your cursor over the image, click with your mouse, and, while holding your mouse button down, drag the image around so other parts are visible. Below the image, centered, is a download link (you might have to use the window's scrollbar to see the the link).
If you have any questions about using this site or these documents, or tips for other researchers, please post them to this mailing list.
