THE FIRST LIBRARY OF UKRAINIAN BOOKS IN SERBIA TO BE FORMED SOON

16 Feb THE FIRST LIBRARY OF UKRAINIAN BOOKS IN SERBIA TO BE FORMED SOON

A group of eight publishing houses and the KROKODIL Association have jointly launched an initiative to purchase books in the Ukrainian language, which are primarily intended for the growing Ukrainian community in our country. The intention of this initiative is to help people who escaped the devastations of the war feel at least somewhat at home and that, despite all the circumstances, they can lead a normal life similar to the one they left behind.

The publishers participating in this noble initiative are:

Blum

Booka

Finesa

Geopoetika

Heliks

Štrik

Treći trg

Urban Reads

About 400 books for children and adults will be purchased from the distribution center that was established in Kyiv during the war precisely for the needs of the growing Ukrainian diaspora. At the beginning of March, the books will be delivered to Serbia as part of the humanitarian campaign and the trip of KROKODIL’s team to Ukraine. The books will be donated and placed in the library of the humanitarian organization Čini dobro, which is actively involved in supporting and providing assistance to Ukrainians in Serbia, thus making them available to future users.
