From 1914 to 1918, in particular from the First World War , numerous libraries , archives , museums , authorities and private individuals endeavored to document the First World War as completely as possible by means of their own World War II collections .

For today's Germany alone (as of: 07/2014) there has been a web portal to the relevant war collections since the beginning of 2014, "which shows 235 collections from the First World War and the collection materials that have remained to them to this day".
