Bearing Witness The National Library of Israel is leading the Bearing Witness project, a comprehensive, long-term national and international initiative to document the events of October 7th and their aftermath, by collecting materials in cooperation with the myriad organizations, individuals, communities, and grassroots initiatives involved in documentation efforts, and bringing them together in a centralized NLI platform. Given NLI’s expertise in organizing, cataloging, meta-tagging, and long-term storage and preservation of materials, the Library coordinates the collection of audio and video recordings, posts, memes, photographs, chats, media coverage, and more. Bearing Witness also includes a focus on documenting antisemitism and activism worldwide and specifically the Jewish experience on North American college campuses.
