Scope and Content Note
This series contains publications about home front activities such as salvage, child care, education, and collection of war records. These records were kept as part of the organization's efforts to document the war effort on the home front.
Included is a nearly complete run of the Yonkers Home News, a publication written for distribution to Yonkers servicemen stationed around the world. A pamphlet entitled "Organizing Your Community For War Records Work," published by the National Jewish Welfare Board, describes efforts which should be undertaken to preserve records of Jewish participation in the war effort. Also found are several issues of the Ossining Courier.
