Little Yom Kippur in Judaism is a name for fasting and Taanit customs, and the saying of forgiveness, which is practiced every New Year's Eve, and when Rosh Hashanah begins on Saturday or Sunday, precedes "Yom Kippur" on Thursday. The custom of the custom is probably in Safed, and it is mentioned in the book "Menot HaLevi" by Rabbi Shlomo Elkabetz and in the Kabbalah by Rabbi Moshe Cordoviro. However, the custom was already well-known in Ashkenaz in the mid-15th century and is mentioned in the book "Collect justice".
This custom expresses an idea whose roots are already in the Bible (in the Book of Numbers, chapter 18, verse 15, when God commands the people of Israel to bring a sin offering on Rosh Chodesh), according to which Rosh Chodesh is a day of judgment and atonement for wrongdoing alongside being a feast day.
Later, this idea came to light (though vague) in the Talmud (Babylonian Talmud, Maskat Shavuot, page 9, page 2, and in the Babylonian Talmud, Maskin Chulin, page 5, page 2) regarding being the first-year sacrifice of God's atonement Supposedly for diminishing the light of the brick in the seven days of creation.
This is how the idea developed that because Rosh Chodesh is a Judgment Day, it is necessary to treat this day accordingly: seriously and imitating the practices of the Central Day of Atonement in the year, it is not Yom Kippur.
You can see the whole answer here including what nakE wrote that there are allusions to yom kippur katan in the pasuk and gemora and that yom kippur katan has been done at least since the 15th century.
This source answers why is the day of yom kippur katan on erev rosh chodesh and not on rosh chodesh itself and that is that since rosh chodesh is a happy day, they set the day for tefilah and fasting (for those who fast) erev rosh chodesh.
In what ways do different groups interpret the custom? Is it considered a firm requirement, a fixed minhag, or simply an optional extra tool for spiritual improvement? May one do it some months but not others?
The minhag is kept by Yehudei Polin. In the Machzor Polin MiKol HaShonnoh, it says that on Yom Kippur Koton, people should fast but that even if you don't fast you still say the selichos at Minchoh. Also, it says if you fast, then you put on tallis and tefillin at Minchoh.See -yom-kippur-koton-a-minhag-ashkenaz#667 for the Ashkenazi viewpoint.
In biblischen Zeiten war Rosch chodesch, der Tag des Erscheinens des Neumonds, ein Feiertag, an dem nicht gearbeitet werden durfte. Dieses Verbot wurde whrend der Kompilation des Talmuds aufgehoben. Seither gilt Rosch chodesch als sogenannter Halbfeiertag. Im 16. Jahrhundert begannen die Mystiker von Safed in Obergalila, am Tag vor Rosch chodesch zu fasten. Dafr wurde eine an den Bussgebeten von Jom Kippur (Vershnungstag) orientierte Liturgie entwickelt, weshalb dieser Fasttag die Bezeichnung Jom kippur katan (Kleiner Vershnungstag) erhielt. Bald breitete sich der Brauch auch nach Italien und in die Lnder nrdlich der Alpen aus.
Im 18. Jahrhundert erfreuten sich Handschriften für Jom kippur katan sehr grosser Beliebtheit, waren jedoch selten illustriert. Beim Exemplar der Braginsky Collection ist lediglich die Titelseite geschmckt mit einem barocken Architekturrahmen und den Figuren Moses und Aaron. Das ursprnglich wohl fr den Namen des Besitzers vorgesehene Oval in der Rocaille ber dem Architrav blieb frei. In der Titelinschrift findet sich jedoch der Name des Schreibers sowie die Jahreszahl und der Ort der Herstellung: Juda Leib ben Meir aus Glogau (Schlesien), Pressburg 1730.
Von diesem Kopisten ist kein weiteres Manuskript bekannt, aber Schrift und Illustration der Titelseite weisen alle Merkmale des Stils von Aaron Wolf Herlingen aus Gewitsch auf. Wre Juda Leib als Schreiber nicht erwhnt, wrde man dieses Manuskript bestimmt Herlingen zuschreiben. Mglicherweise erwarb Juda Leib eine von Herlingen illustrierte Titelseite ohne Texteintrag und integrierte sie in sein Buch. Das wrde das leere Textfeld ebenso erklren wie die Tatsache, dass die Titelseite als separates Blatt in die Handschrift eingebunden ist. Zudem ist ein Eintrag in einem Pressburger Census von 1736 bekannt, der einen nicht namentlich genannten famulus (Gehilfen) in Herlingens Haushalt erwhnt. Ist dieser mit Juda Leib gleichzusetzen, wre die Herkunft des Titelblatts geklrt.

Gold colored embossed mezuzah used by Dr. Leo Nast, a chemical engineer who left Hamburg, Germany, for the United States in July 1934.
