For the All-Ukrainian Day of Libraries, the SumDU Library has launched a campaign "Give a Book to the Library". This is a voluntary initiative aimed at increasing interest and access to books. The purpose of the event is to inspire people to donate a book to the library and allow other readers to get to know your preferences.

If your home library has textbooks, dictionaries, fiction, or books in foreign languages that you no longer need, they will find their reader in the library.

PortaOne for Library In early 2020, as a gift from PortaOne, SumDU Library received modern books on IT, which will help students and teachers to learn the most popular programming languages, learn about the universal rules of software architecture, explore the theory of database systems. You can view the publication in the reading room of the Central Library (LIC-305).

Book Exhibition Ukrainian Unity Day is a holiday, which is celebrated to mark the signing of the treaty between the Ukrainian People's Republic and the West Ukrainian People's
Republic, on the St Sophia Square in Kyiv, on January 22 in 1919. The first official celebration of Ukrainian Unity Day at the state level took place on January 22, 1939, in the capital of the Carpathian Ukraine − Khust. In modern Ukraine, at the state level, that day was first celebrated in 1999.
Today this holiday is celebrated by the creation of a human chain that unites the Western and Eastern parts of the country.
The first chain was created in 1990 when more than a million patriotic Ukrainians joined hands and united the way from Kyiv to Lviv.
