Acquisition of Rare Ukrainian Serial Publications
 We purchased this microfilm set, produced and distributed by
    Norman
    Ross Publishing Inc. this year. It consists of 513 reels, contains runs
    of
    more than 200 title of newspapers and journals. Most of them were
    originally published in Galicia, Bukovina or Transcarpatia at the
    second half of 19th century or at the beginning of 20th century under
    Austro-Hungarian monarchy.
    We hope that this collection will be used as a fundamental source of
    political, social and ethnical history of Western Ukraine, much help to
    understand this historically and ethnically very interesting region.
