What is this?

We’ve put together a larger database of articles, news stories, social media posts, and links to projects of different kinds.

It runs on the open-source bibliographic software Zotero. If you are new to it, you might want to look at the instructions and documentation below.

What’s in it?

The database is organised into six main folders:

  1. Websites with “introduction to Palestine” resources.
  2. Book recommendations on Palestine.
  3. Web resources on Israel’s involvement in repression outside of Palestine.
  4. Web resources on Palestinian solidarity movements around the world.
  5. Web resources to the BDS movement and the people doing this work.
  6. Web resources on reporters, analysts, journalists, writers on Palestine working on the ground and beyond.

You can browse it through these categories, dozens of thematic tags, or simply search through it.

How can I contribute?

Do you have images, videos, posters, stories, memories or other materials from the events, teach-ins, and SJP activities we support that you would like to share with us? Please join us in archiving them by filling out this form. Together we can document ourselves throughout these urgent and unprecedented times.

How to use the database

How to use it on your phone

Click through the slides below to see how to use the database on your phone, and to get an idea of the different elements of the Zotero interface.

1. Open the Zotero database

At the top you will see a link to "All Items", which you can follow to open the entire library.

Below you will see a list of folders, where we have grouped materials as per the list above.

2. Display the contents of the folder

When you open a folder, you will see any subfolders it contains, and a link to "Items". Click on it to see the contents of the folder.

3. Open an item

Click on any item to view it in more detail.

The magnifying glass button opens the search box. The tag buttton allows you to filter by tags (useful when browsing large folders or the whole library).

4. Scroll through to item details

In this screen you will see all the details we have on a particular item: what it is (a tweet, a newspaper or magazine article, a blog post, a dataset, etc.), who produced it, when, and other bibliographic information.

5. Open the item

Most items have a hyperlink to a web address (URL) associated with them. You can click on it to open that site, but bear in mind that the website may have changed, moved, or been taken offline.

With this in mind, we have also created and archived a snapshot of each item, which you can access under the "attachments" section.

How to use it on your desktop

The database is easier to use on your desktop because all the elements described above are visible on one screen.
