All European countries are offering safe places of refuge for millions of people escaping war in Ukraine. European Libraries are peace strongholds amidst the horrible war which followed the Russian attack against Ukraine. It is their duty to provide support and, as far as possible, services to Ukranian refugees.
EBLIDA , NAPLE and PL2030 have joined forces to create the “Libraries for Refugees” network, which hosts access points providing services for displaced Ukrainians. The objective of this initiative is to share a clear understanding of what libraries can offer refugees and promote similar services in other countries.
Library access points displaying the “Libraries for Refugees” logo include resources and facilities purposely designed to help Ukrainian displaced persons. Join the network and have your activities for Ukrainians displayed on the “Libraries for Refugees” website: https://lib4refugees.splet.arnes.si/.
