Currently, more than 1700 interested people have joined the campaign. Together they managed to collect about 25 tons of waste paper, official sites of both clubs report in the municipal bookstore "Syaivo knygi", which organized the action.
"You carried books for us in your hands, carried them in suitcases, arrived in cars full of books, sent them by taxi, sent them by mail. We were happy for each of you, because this passion in the eyes cannot be compared with anything," the bookstore said.

By handing over Russian books for recycling, we managed to recover 97,8 thousand hryvnias.
"The deposit has already been sent, the car is on its way from Europe to Ukraine, but the amount we collected is not enough for the required car, so the municipal bookstore announced the continuation of the collection of Russian books.
We invite residents to join and bring books that no longer have a place in their home libraries," emphasizes the "City Store" KP.
