Российская государственная библиотека
When Sholom Dovber and Yosef Yitzchak left Russia and Europe, an estimated 10,000 volumes from their collection remained behind. Since the war it has been stored in the Russian State Library. In 2010 Chabad filed suit against the Russian Library in an attempt to retrieve its collection. On July 30, 2010, Royce C. Lamberth, a federal judge of the United States District Court in Washington, ruled in favor of the Chabad organization, ordering Russia to turn over all Schneerson documents held at the Russian State Library, the Russian State Military Archive and elsewhere, and ordered to pay fines of $50,000 a day for failing to send the rest of the collection to the United States.
