    This sounds good, but what about doing this for everyone anywhere in the world (or is this done already). I would prefer to see a headline ‘Supporting all Scholars through Inter-library Loan’. It also would be preferable for a Non-profit Organization to refrain form echoing political propaganda. The situation in the Ukraine may be a little more complicated than many in the West would assume. Their are no clean hands with either of those governments in that situation and some scholars were responsible (on both sides) for where we are today in the Ukraine. I lived in Russia, China, and some of the former Soviet Republics and I assure you ‘Western Media’ is not providing the historical background for this conflict. Provide the services to ‘All’ scholars and leave it at that.

        Chris,
        I have been working with the Archive for well over ten years now, and I knew that. Why the propaganda, then. Supporting all scholars would include Ukrainian Scholars, then why mention ‘Ukrainian.’

        Best wishes,

        Gerry
