There are no analogues of the multimedia resources of the National Library of Belarus not only in our country but also in the CIS countries.
Books, magazines, almanacs, copies of works of art, audio and video recordings – all this is available to online visitors at any time from any medium. The projects are constantly updated.
On the pages of the project “The Wonderful World of Jazep Drazdovich: the 130th Birth Anniversary” you can watch videos about the artist’s work and take a virtual presentation tour.
The project “The Salomea Rusiecka’s Odyssey: from Istanbul to St. Petersburg” offers you to go on a trip with a doctor and adventuress Salomea Rusiecka. You can walk the heroine’s roads, visit the places that she visited, see them through her eyes, meet the people she met, plunge into that lifestyle of that time without leaving home.
Not only Salomea invites you to travel! Pioneer of adventure and scientific and educational fiction in Belarusian children's literature, Yanka Maur invites you to go with him to New Guinea and Tierra del Fuego. "A Virtual Journey with Yanka Maur" project will be a good guide.
You can listen to the national poets of Belarus Yanka Kupala and Yakub Kolas in the original, look through the chronicles of their lives and work in the large-scale project “Classics of world literature Yanka Kupala and Yakub Kolas.”
A special online project “Fashion and Time” provides a unique opportunity to plunge into the fashionable past, where beauties in dresses created by famous designers of that time look from the faded pages. The very first fashion magazines published in Russia and France in the late XIX and early XX centuries are available for viewing.
The project “Book of Belarus of the 14th – 18th Centuries” offers to look through the digitized rare editions and manuscripts from the collections of the National Library of Belarus, created in the 14th – 18th centuries and connected to Belarus according to territorial, linguistic, author or contents factors.
Other equally interesting projects can be found in the Virtual Library Projects section.
Happy reading!
