Reading in Ukrainian

Dear compatriots – both those who have arrived in Estonia in recent days and those who have lived here longer! We are pleased to announce that in a week the Foreign Literature Department of Tallinn Central Library, Liivalaia 40, Tallinn, will be able to offer readers Ukrainian-language literature. Part of the collection was donated by the Association of Ukrainian Organisations in Estonia – children’s books, literary anthologies, books on Ukrainian history and more.

The collection will be expanded according to readers’ requests. So we invite our newly arrived compatriots – parents, teachers and pupils who could visit the library on their own – you are very welcome!!!
