Our collaboration with the Cherkasy Regional Library commenced with the start of the war in Ukraine in 2022.
A fundraiser led by the iSchool faculty supported a children’s drawing contest in the Cherkasy region in Central Ukraine. It helped purchase a scanner for the Cherkasy Regional library to preserve cultural heritage.
The Cherkasy Regional Library Drawing Contest
The fundraiser was picked up by Saving Ukrainian Heritage Online (SUCHO) who fully equipped the Cherkasy Regional library with digitization technology.
SUCHO and the Cherkasy Library
Recent developments focus on supporting rural libraries of the Cherkasy region by purchasing books for these libraries.
