More than a 4 000 UN publications were donated to libraries in Dilijan,
Ijevan, Bert and Noyemberyan municipalities during a three-day trip
organized by the National Library of Armenia which ended today.
This initiative was supported by the UN Department of Public
Information (UN DPI).
In each city the National Library's bibliobus was welcomed by the
municipal authorities, media and local public who got a direct access
to the UN publications in Armenian, English and Russian languages
and were briefed on UN work in Armenia.
Davit Sarksyan, Director of the National Library of Armenia said:
"Thanks to our joint initiative with the UN DPI we were able to do
this unique trip. The bibliobus exhibition was of great interest for
people in the regions, who often don't have access to the latest
news and publications. The UN DPI's donations to the regional and
community libraries are extremely valuable, since these libraries
are always in a need for new materials."
"The public in this charming part of Armenia is looking forward for our
future visits, new literature and more attention," added Mr. Sarksyan.
Maria Dotsenko, the UN DPI Representative said: "The UN DPI works
not only with the Yerevan libraries but pays attention to the needs
of the libraries in the regions. We are happy to support the efforts
of authorities aimed to improve the situation with the regional and
community libraries. We are pleased to join this National Library's
initiative and will continue bringing UN publications to the regions."
The UN DPI Office in Armenia supported the establishment and
functioning of two UN Depository Libraries in Armenia: one at
the National Library of Armenia and another at the Yerevan State
University.
