History / Biographical: The Ottawa Jewish Archives (OJA) began in a very small space in the old Jewish Community Centre, 151 Chapel Street, where important documents were saved, early photographs copied, and oral histories recorded on audio cassette. It reached full operation by the late 1970's when the archives received enlarged space on the second floor of the Centre in a former classroom. The Archives’ growth also came from the guidance and vitality of the first archivist, Shirley Berman, who retired in the fall of 1998. The Ottawa Jewish Archives originally operated as a branch of the Ottawa Jewish Historical Society with some support from the Vaad Ha'ir. In 1997 conversation between the OJHS and Vaad concerning the need for the archives to became an independent operation separate from the Historical Society so it may fulfill its intended purpose. In 1998 the OJA became independent of the OJHS and was to become the financial responsibility of the Vaad at the end of the transition period in 2001. With the interest and support of the Ottawa Jewish Historical Society, Ottawa Vaad Ha’Ir, Ontario Association of Archivists, and a very loyal group of volunteers, the OJA has been able to expand, publicize its activities and gradually organize the holdings according to archival standards. On October 18, 1998 the OJA opened in its new location in the Soloway Jewish Community Centre in the Joseph and Rose Ages Family Building in the west end of Ottawa. The new archival facilities are modern with moveable shelving within a temperature and humidity controlled vault. Archivists: Shirley Berman 1969-1998 (29 years) Dawn Logan 1999-2008 (9 years) Marcia Rak (Assistant Archivist) 1999-2007 (8 years) Laurie Dougherty (Assistant Archivist) 2007-2008 (1 year) Laurie Dougherty 2009-2012 (3 years) Emily Leonoff 2012-2014 (2 years) Saara Mortensen 2014-2018 (4 years) Zoe Thrumston 2018- 2019 (1 year) Teigan Goldsmith 2019 - Present
