    'ARMENIAN CULTURAL VALUES ARE WORLD VALUES'
    Romanian Ambassador States

    Having studied the Armenia's cultural and printed heritage during his
    diplomatic service, Nikolay Jordas, Romanian ambassador to Armenia,
    arrived at a conclusion that these are world values. With pride he
    recalls that the founder of the Romanian literature of revival of
    19th century, Spirua Kharet, was of Armenian origin and later on he
    was appointed minister of education of the country. Amb. Jordas is
    glad that the huge depository of Romanian literature at the Armenian
    National Library is well preserved.

    The 5th annual Week of National Library organized by the Armenian
    Library Association will last from April 3 to 10. The opening ceremony
    on April 3 hosted not only the Romanian diplomat but also the First
    Lady of Armenia Bella Kocharian and others.

    The Week that is being held under the title "Library: Crossroad
    of Civilizations" is aimed at bringing attention to the issues that
    libraries face and to awaken love for books. Library employees are sure
    that the "Law on Libraries", which is currently being discussed at the
    parliament, will help put in order the library science. Davit Sargsian,
    head of the Armenian Library Association, stated that there are over
    1.000 public libraries in the republic and that the rural ones need
    special attention. "Imperatives of the day are updating and preserving
    library funds, equipping them with up-to-date technologies, recruiting
    qualified staffs and repairing library compounds," Mr. Sargsian said.

    Within the framework of the arrangement, interesting projects and
    meetings will be organized not only in Yerevan but also in marzes,
    Nagorno Karabakh and Javakhk.

    The messages of NA speaker and prime minister were read at the opening
    ceremony and 6 workers of the sphere received thank you letters on
    behalf of the PM for their services.
