Two new editions of books about Bulgaria have been released: Bulgaria, the Rough Guide and Lonely Planet Bulgaria. For a long time it was difficult to find good and up-to-date travelguides, but this afternoon I saw these two books in the library. They were both published in 2002 and looked very interesting. The Rough Guide is the 3rd edition, the Lonely Planet the 1st.

At the same time I saw that the archive of the library is now open to the public -- very nice. In the attic there are many more books. There I found an old history book about Bulgaria, written by the famous historican Ilcho Dimitrov. It's from 1979 -- years later Dimitrov became Minister of Education.
