Crisis in Ukraine


Statement of Support for the Ukrainian Library Community from the Eisenhower Public Library Board of Trustees

The Eisenhower Public Library District Board of Trustees is awed and inspired by the resilience and commitment of our colleagues in Ukraine. Ukrainian libraries have become bomb shelters, points of refuge for displaced citizens, organizational centers for defense efforts in villages and cities, and as always, they serve as providers of information and resources. Librarians in Ukraine are working against disinformation, they are providing support to their communities through initiatives such as first aid instruction, and they are doing their best to preserve the history and culture of their country.

The Eisenhower Public Library District Board of Trustees joins the American Library Association and the International Federation of Library Associations in expressing support for the libraries and librarians of Ukraine.
