Today russians hit and destroyed the Kherson Regional Universal Scientific Library.
One year ago, leaving the city, occupiers stole the rare books from the library's collection.
Since February 2022, russia damaged or ruined more than 800 Ukrainian libraries.

Next steps for SUCHO: focus on sharing expertise via network. Providing training for Ukrainian institutions (e.g. metadata curation, data formats, digital preservation, exhibit curation) with Ukrainian translation.
