Audiotapes and transcripts of interviews with mostly Jewish refugees and internees in Britain of the Nazi and World War II era. Interviews are undated but were conducted prior to 1980 and relate to the period 1933-1947.

The collection consists of 168 cassettes tapes of interviews with 77 individuals (both men and women), and transcripts of 41 of those interviews. Those interviewed are mainly Jewish refugees (including individuals of mixed race or Jewish extraction), though a minority are not (such as a member of a refugee assistance committee, an Anglican clergyman who attended the Onchan internment camp in the Isle of Man, and a Polish underground member). They are for the most part of academic or professional background.
