I collected responses to a question about the Holocaust from 150 people
in the Boulder Colorado area.  I appoached the local history library to
donate an archive of this work.  They told me they would not accept it,
becaue it did not specifically relate to the history of Boulder.  They do
houe some oral histories on Bouldites.
This led me to contact the Holocaust Museum in Washington, which I found
to be very receptive to and supportive of my work.  I also found the
Simon Wiesenthal Center in LA to be extremely helpul.  Since alot of the
history of the Holocaust has been recorded orally, these mueums would be
great sources for information on this suject.
