From authors

Ukraine has a significant cultural and historical wealth, which is valuable not only in our country but also abroad. Digital technologies provide opportunities to save valuable cultural heritage of Ukraine, which is endangered; promote awareness of the importance of safety of the public cultural and scientific heritage; help to develop the various aspects of culture and science; consolidate cultural heritage of society. This is a huge step in the exchange of intellectual information not only within the country but also globally. We want to open to the world those untold treasures of our country that are stored on the shelves and showcases in museums and can be given to oblivion. We are doing this during the last 5 years and now we have inspiration to systematize this process across the country. Join us!
