The CAHJP holds microfilmed group passports of the immigrants who arrived in Israel from all Jewish-Bulgarian communities between October 1948 and May 1949. Unfortunately, the lists are not arranged alphabetically and some pages are illegible. The archives also has lists of immigrant surnames by ships and various records for different time periods from a number of communities in Bulgaria. They also have records from a few Jewish communities. <br><br> | |||

The Diaspora Research Center holds the results of a 1990-94 project that collected photographs and documentation on Bulgarian Jewish archives, cemeteries, institutions, religious objects, neighborhoods, private and public libraries, and synagogues. The project includes a systematic photographic record of the archives of Jewish communities kept in the State Archives in Sofia. The collection includes the archives of all the Jewish communities from the 16th century until 1960.<ref>Genealogical Library of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, “Outline for Genealogical Research in Bulgaria,” Word document, private files of the FamilySearch Content Strategy Team, 1982.</ref><br><br> | |||
