This collection can serve as a prototype for using new technologies to digitally present information from and about these posters. Ideally, computers and software can enable us to see connections between hundreds of sources. Some of the information that people seek could be easily generated. They might find a list of actors who performed with State Jewish Theatre of Romania and immigrated to Israel, or map the performances of Max Perlman and Gita Galina. Wikidata can aggregate the most frequently performed characters in Yiddish plays and musicals to follow changes in repertoire, and they could cross-reference these with Yiddish theatre posters available in the public domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My assignment was to provide catalogue records for each of the posters in anticipation of their digitization. I also created and recorded data related to each poster for a free, public database called Wikidata.<a href=\"\/\/B2997F20-E993-465E-BC64-B5208C8908C3#_msocom_4\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wikidata is community driven\u2014a crowdsourcing platform of contributors from related disciplines that is not limited to scholars and professional information specialists. Wikidata enables anyone with a love for and knowledge of Yiddish theatre to research, document, collect, and share their knowledge. Contributions to Wikidata include biographical information on actors, directors, scenographers, impresarios, musical directors, lyricists, and choreographers. Wikidata can include textual works and their derivatives, translators, playwrights, venues, and material culture like the posters themselves. The database would include holding institutions and archival repository information, locations, and even shelf marks. My work on this collection has produced two new reference sources on the history of the Yiddish theatre in Israel: the Stanford catalogue records for the individual posters, and the entries added to Wikidata. Both are freely available online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of the poster collection\u2019s chronological and geographical scope, it enlarges the universe of knowledge of dozens of heretofore obscure Yiddish theatre personalities such as \u02bbAlizah \u1e24en (active 1977), \u1e24ayah\u2019leh Shifer (active 1951), Aleksandr Gronovski (active 1964),<sup><a href=\"#fn\">6<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0as well as the more famous ones including Maurice Schwartz, Shimon Dzigan, and Joseph Buloff.

Materials are often buried in archives, located continents apart. Improving the visibility of Yiddish theatre means making it accessible \u2013 available digitally to all. The Stanford library\u2019s new and publicly available data on Yiddish theatre in Israel is entirely created from Wikidata items generated from the posters at Stanford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first stage of the project is now complete. I created over 600 pages in Wikidata to enable SUL to share this collection with the rest of the world. My dream is that this is only the beginning of a larger project, one in which any institution, archive, museum or individual lover of Yiddish theatre will engage more fully with digital scholarship and the Wikidata community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such a project might include databases such as the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/digitalcollections.nypl.org\/collections\/yiddish-theater-collection#\/?tab=navigation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">New York Public Library Yiddish Theater Collection<\/a>; the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/vilnatroupe.com\/data\/current_database.xlsx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vilna Troupe dataset<\/a>&nbsp;created by Debra Caplan;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/archives.cjh.org\/\/repositories\/3\/resources\/6736\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Theatre and Film Poster Collection of Abram Kanof<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cjh.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Center for Jewish History<\/a>;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/archives.jdc.org\/polish-yiddish-theater-posters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Polish Yiddish Theater Posters<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/archives.jdc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">JDC Archives<\/a>;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/sceti.library.upenn.edu\/freedman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robert and Molly Freedman Jewish Sound Archive<\/a>, University of Pennsylvania;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/lib-collections\/yiddish-posters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yiddish Posters<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/lib-collections\/yiddish-posters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UWM Libraries Digital Collections<\/a>;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/library.harvard.edu\/collections\/harvard-yiddish-theater-collections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Harvard Yiddish Theater Collections<\/a>;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yivo.org\/Krum-Memorial-Collections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sidney Krum Jewish Music &amp; Yiddish Theater Memorial Collection<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yivo.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YIVO Institute for Jewish Research<\/a>;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en-arts.tau.ac.il\/Researches\/archive\/isr-cen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Israeli Center for the Documentation of the Performing Arts<\/a>;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.blavatnikarchive.org\/collections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Moscow State Yiddish Theater<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.blavatnikarchive.org\/collection\/msyt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Blavatnik Archive<\/a>;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/goorarchive.com\/en\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Israel Goor Theatre Archives and Museum<\/a>, Hebrew University in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of us realize that our collections become more useful and usable when they are deeply interlinked with other collections around the world. Wikidata can connect these databases. I invite my colleagues and scholars to form a task force, or come together as a group to discuss this topic within the community. Participants could include subject specialists, librarians, data scientists and Yiddish theatre lovers in general.
