ISRAEL IN THE 1990s 60 1 0,,tnAin-Daiellmal ion League From Knowledge to Action The Upheaval in Eastern Europe and Its Effect on Israel LECTURES Electronic Link Set For Schools Jerusalem (JTA) — A unique research project will allow an electronic linkup to connect hundreds of Jewish educational and social organizations worldwide. The computerized Holo- caust encyclopedia at the New York Holocaust Muse- um; Geshernet, a system connecting Israeli and American schools; and the Well, a network which has a Jewish electronic discussion, will be able to connect to a single network. The project was launched by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, an indepen- dent think tank concerned with policy research and ed- ucation. The center will issue a report and a five-year implementation plan. The project will enable any Jewish organization to be connected to a single, coor- dinated database network. Data will thus be easily ac- cessible by any Jewish group or institute. The inter- change will prevent duplica- tion of research. The long-range plan will include an appraisal of communications services in the Jewish world and a plan to provide them to Jewish communities throughout the world.
