We are thrilled to announce that the Leo Baeck Institute’s Library of Lost Books project has been awarded the prestigious Grimme Online Award in the category of Kultur und Unterhaltung. This recognition highlights the dedication and hard work behind the project, which aims to relocate books from Berlin’s Higher Institute for Jewish Studies, closed by the Nazis in 1942.

The award ceremony, held on 16th October at the Grimme Institute, was a wonderful occasion to celebrate this achievement alongside other projects in the digital space. A livestream of the event is now available on the Grimme Online Award YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/GrimmeOnlineAward and a selection of photos from the event is accessible on the Grimme Online Award Flickr page: Flickr Gallery.
