About this app

The Jewish Virtual Library (JVL) is your source for information about Jewish history, Israel, U.S.-Israel relations, the Holocaust, anti-Semitism, and Judaism. The JVL currently has more than 25,000 articles and 10,000 images and is accessed by users in more than 230 countries and territories worldwide.

The JVL is not just a historical archive - it is also the place to find talking points and factual analysis on the most important news stories. When an issue comes to the fore and you need data fast, the JVL is the first place you should look.

The JVL purposely avoids links with other sites so as to make this a one-stop shop for information. Our goal is to provide the basic information you need and we have purposely kept most of the entries brief to make them more digestible. Some will provide all the information you need, others should be viewed as a starting point. We stick to the facts and make as many primary sources and original documents available as possible.

Search bar is unusable. I love the site though, I just have to use browser everything because not just do I have to manually look up what I want to read since pressing links doesn't open into the app, but even the search bad is unusable. I type whatever topic I was reading on browser but both (yes 2 searchbars) don't lead to any other page except Home.

I like this app to use for all the different history and other library wings. But as it has been said, the search function and bar do not work at all. They take me to the home page each time. At least on the website I can search. Thanks.
