About the project
LIBRARIA is a project by the company Archive Information Systems (AIS), implemented in cooperation with libraries, archives, and research institutions in Ukraine and abroad.
Its goal is to digitize and make available online a growing corpus of Ukrainian historical periodicals. The first newspaper collections were scanned in 2012.
To date, more than 800,000 pages from over 400 publications in Ukrainian, Polish, German, Romanian, Yiddish, Crimean Tatar, and Russian—produced in different regions of Ukraine and beyond, from their beginnings through the 1950s—have been digitized, with the archive continuously expanding. Plans include reaching several million pages and extending coverage both geographically and chronologically.
