Books Published in War Time to be Digitized


08.02.2010

Books and newspapers published during the Great Patriotic War (WW II) and now kept at Volgograd regional Library named after Maxim Gorky will be digitized, a press service of Volgograd administration reports. These are largely books about Stalingrad and the Battle of Stalingrad (around twenty items) and a newspaper Stalingradskaya Pravda. 

“This work is done in the context of the 65th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War,” the press service reports.

A part of digitized materials is to be sent to the Presidential Library named after Boris Yeltsin. Apart from that, rare publications about Stalingrad and the Battle of Stalingrad will be presented this spring at an International Press Center in Moscow.
