Newsletter #7
NEWSLETTER #7 18.12.2017 Innovations in decentralisation: the very first in Ukraine Mobile Administrative Service Centre was launched with support from U-LEAD with Europe Programme A Mobile ASC is a specially equipped vehicle with workstations for two administrators and room for three visitors. The Mobile ASC can provide 80 types of services for citizens of remote areas. Slavuta community in Khmelnytskyi oblast is U-LEAD’s pilot region for implementation of the “mobile” format of administrative service delivery. The Mobile ASC will visit the residents of remote towns and villages on a regular basis and run 5 routes covering 20 settlements during the course of a week. It will provide access to high quality services for more than 8,000 residents of the remote areas in Slavuta community, including pensioners and people with disabilities. The mobile ASC is equipped with the terminal for cashless payments and the revenues from the administrative services will be credited to the community budget. In case of pilot’s success in Slavuta, it will be replicated in other Ukrainian communities. The “U-LEAD with Europe” Programme’s team jointly with the Vice-Prime-Minister, Minister of Regional Development, Hennadii Zubko, presented the mobile ASC in Kyiv on December 4th at the 2nd All-Ukrainian Forum for amalgamated communities. The event was attended by the President, the Head of the Parliament, Prime-Minister and heads of the amalgamated communities. At the ceremony of the ASC opening in Slavuta (which took place on November 30th), the Ambassador of Sweden to Ukraine, Martin Hagström, and the Adviser on Decentralization of the EU Delegation to Ukraine, Benedikt Herrmann, highly praised the partnership between the community and Swedish and Ukrainian experts and its role in development of accessible, high quality administrative services and good governance in Ukraine.

Are Now Searchable by Name at Genealogy Indexer
PRESS RELEASE FROM GENEALOGY INDEXER (dated April 5, 2019) www.genealogyindexer.org Courtesy of the Miriam Weiner Archival Collection, with assistance from the Library of Congress, Genealogy Indexer is delighted to announce that the following 75 Ukrainian telephone directories from 1970 to 1994 are now full-text searchable at genealogyyindexer.org. These directories were collected by renowned genealogist Miriam Weiner over her decades-long pioneering career in Jewish genealogy, donated to the Library of Congress in 2016, scanned meticulously by the Library of Congress for preservation and presentation on their website, and, finallyy, OCR'd by us and added this week to the search engine. The Library of Congress' European Division also obtained the necesssary permissions to share this important material online. We thank Miriam Weiner, the Library of Congress, and the Ukrainian Embassy for making this possible. The directories cover many towns and districts throughout what is today Ukraine, corresponding to territory formerly in the historical regions of Galicia, Bukovina, Carpathian Ruthenia, and seven gubernias of the Russian Empire: Chernigov, Kharkov, Kherson, Kiev, Podolia, Poltava, and Volhynia. There was previously no post-WWII coverage of most of these locations and there is very little pre-WWII coverage of many of the non-Galician places. So, there is a great potential for researchers to learn new information, especially about families separated by the Iron Curtain, and we encourage anyone with roots in Ukraine to search these additions (also, if you knnow Ukrainnian researchers, please share). Two easy ways to search: change the Regular Sort option below the search box to New Matches First or, to restrict a search to only the Miriam Weiner Archival Collection, append {weiner} to your search term.
