We have teased this news on our social media the past weeks, and we are now proud to be able to share this important new resource page with you officially: the Eastern European History resource page.

The MEMSlib team is currently working to bring together a range of resources for understanding, contextualising, and teaching the history of the countries and kingdoms which now fall under the broad reach of 'Eastern Europe'.

These resources are being compiled in response to the developing conflict in Ukraine, within a wider concern in the Humanities to archive, and make accessible, the cultural heritage of this country, while also preventing the spread of disinformation.

Do get in touch with us if you would like to suggest a resource.

Today, we would especially like to highlight Dr Suzanna Ivanič's Early Modern History of Ukraine resource collection, in collaboration with the Connected Central European Worlds, 1500-1700 project and the University of Kent.

This important collection brings together a wide range of resources on the history, material culture, and cartography of  Ukraine and the surrounding territories in the Early Modern period, with some resources also covering parts of the medieval period.

We are incredibly grateful to Dr Suzanna Ivanič for creating this very important resource collection which is greatly needed in the current climate.

Call for contributors!

We're asking for your feedback!

The new look for our re-launched MEMSLib pages are works in progress, and we would greatly benefit from your feedback as we look to following this format across the rest of our site. We have added a new feedback form to our website, and we would really appreciate your thoughts, comments, and suggestions for how to make our digital library work best for you.

You can also stay in touch via email or Twitter, and we'll be back soon with more updates as we work towards a MEMSLib which is built for researchers globally.
