The The Eventov collection was started in 1954 by Yakir Eventov (Drago Steiner) and his wife Etelka, an archivist by profession, in order to document and commemorate the history of the Jews of Yugoslavia. Soon after its establishment, the archive became part of the Association of Immigrants from the former Yugoslavia in Israel (est. 1935), an organization that was established by Yakir, Etelka and others. Yakir and Etelka were also members of its Historical Committee. Later, thanks to the enthusiastic work of several members of the Historical Committee, including Zvi Loker, Dr. Cvi Rotem (Rothmüller), Dr. Branko Gossmann, Dr. Joseph (Joža) Milhofer and others, the collection was enriched by historical and statistic data about Yugoslav Jewry. The archive still keeps drafts and materials that were used for writing historical books about Yugoslav Jews, and invaluable data about each Jewish community in the former Yugoslavia that was published in the Pinkas Hakehillot series. The Eventov Collection was originally divided into four main fonds: 1. The Association’s archive, including personal information about its members; 2. Files about communities, Zionist activities in Yugoslavia, Jewish organizations, antisemitism, the Holocaust, WWII, and immigration; 3. Publications; 4. Photographs.
