Jewish community given back books stolen by Nazis
None
Books plundered by the Nazis that recently resurfaced are being turned back over to Berlin's Jewish community. Ten books, including one by famous author Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, and three journals are being turned over Wednesday.
The Berlin Central and Regional Library came across the books while going through 200,000 volumes as part of a project to establish their origin. Jewish community spokeswoman May Zehden says the handover "has great symbolic value." (AP)
