library-campaign
The improvement campaign for the National Library of Abkhazia is complete! There is a lot more to do, but a lot has already been done. The Abkhaz archives and libraries were burned down by the Georgians during the 1992-93 war. Now a few injuries have recovered with the awakened support of the Caucasian Diaspora and efforts of Federation of European Circassians
