The Rauh Jewish Archives includes records of organizations, institutions, businesses, and congregations, and the papers of individuals and families.

Correspondence, diaries, memoirs, ledgers, minutes, scrapbooks, memorabilia, audio tapes, photographs, and moving images are housed in appropriate acid-free containers and stored in a monitored, secure, and climate-controlled environment.

The collections are available for research in the reading room of the Library and Archives of the History Center. Artifacts related to the collections are transferred to the History Center Museum.

Finding aids for the highlighted collections and many others are available on Historic Pittsburgh.
