From The Jewish Chronicle:

An international project has been launched to reunite thousands of books looted by Nazis with their owners or their descendants.

The Commission for Looted Art in London and the Nuremberg Municipal Library in Germany have been working together to find the owners of 10,000 volumes that were part of the collection of Julius Streicher, the Nazis’ chief propagandist and creator of the notorious antisemitic newspaper Der Stürmer.

The collection was placed in the hands of the Nuremberg Jewish community at the end of the war, which then gave it to the library on permanent loan.

The library published 115 names of the original owners on the website of the commission’s sister organisation, the Central Registry of Information on Looted Cultural Property, a week ago. Already, the commission’s Anne Webber reports that half-a-dozen families have been in contact saying they recognised relatives.
