I recently donated one of my artist books to a library in Kosovo (Balkans, ex-Yugoslavia, Serbia). I just received a thank you letter from Roman A. Dogan by snail mail. I am the ONLY one to send a donation to them. He said the average monthly salary in Kosovo is $30 and unemployment is 60%. They have no computer or internet access. They depend on donations, but there has been no response from abroad. He asked me to ask others to send donations of videos, CDs, books or periodicals. They are especially interested in books on politics, art & artists, and practical issues: arts & crafts, garden, home repairs, No fiction or literature is needed. Any languages are welcome, though he mentions that few people speak Spanish in Kosovo. Also send T shirts, artstic prints and used postage stamps for the children's collections.
I found the Kosovo library from this website: Infoshops & Zine Libraries http://www.undergroundpress.org/infoshops.html Here’s the listing, with an updated address as of May 2005 -- Please donate! - Tamara Wyndham Kosovo RLP, c/o PF 44, CH 4142, Munchenstein 3, Switzerland Using this address because it is more secure; no Internet access. Seeking donations for "independent free reference library." Any zine or book donations welcomed. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
