Publications about the holocaust (free PDF)

I was looking for another book (on the Jew in Russia -- I'm in the process of writing a study guide on Jewish history for a client of mine) and happened across the website for the United States Holocaust Museum in Washington DC during my search (the book I wanted apparently was at one time available as an ebook on Kindle but is no longer available). Anyway, they have a number of what they call "Occasional papers" which range in length from a few dozen pages to a few hundred pages which are fascinating research material, available free online for the taking:

http://www.ushmm.org/research/center...php#occasional

I counted around 50 such papers. A few samples of titles:

"Germany’s War for World Conquest and the Extermination of Jews"

“THE FIRST ENCOUNTER: SURVIVORS AND AMERICANS IN THE LATE 1940S”

“JEWISH CHILDREN: BETWEEN PROTECTORS AND MURDERERS”

“ANNE FRANK AND THE FUTURE OF HOLOCAUST MEMORY”

Hardly light reading material, but a virtual treasure trove of scholarly works for anyone who is studying this period of history or who simply find it interesting to read about.
