I have been donating books to a library in Kosovo (Balkans, ex-Yugoslavia, Serbia). It's expensive to send books overseas. I imagine that it would be less expensive for Europeans to send books, as the mailing address is in Switzerland. So, Europeans, see if you have any books for Kosovo! Here is the information below:
I just received a thank you letter from Roman A. Dogan by snail mail. Very few people have sent donations 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 almost 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, artistic prints and used postage stamps for the children's collections. Recently he asked for books on Eastern traditional medicine/healing. I found the Kosovo library from this website: Infoshops & Zine Libraries http://www.undergroundpress.org/infoshops.html Heres the listing, with an updated address as of January 2006 -- Please donate! - Tamara Wyndham Kosovo Library 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.
