A continuation of the project of the Krka National Park “Let’s fill school libraries”
As part of the long-standing project “Let’s fill school libraries”, the Krka National Park donated another book from its rich publishing activity to primary and secondary schools in Šibenik-Knin County – the monograph: The Krka River on Old Postcards. The book contains 219 postcards from the collection of the Drniš Municipal Museum, carefully selected as a testament to the time when the Krka River was a popular motif on postcards, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
In addition to bringing back nostalgic memories of times gone by, these postcards are a valuable visual record of the changes that have occurred in the landscape, both natural and man-made. Pictures of Roški slap waterfall from 1919 and the Krka hydroelectric power plant at Skradinski buk waterfall from 1895 bear witness to the coexistence of man and nature, and the important role that the Krka River has played in the development of this area.
The “Let’s fill up school libraries” project, launched in 2007, aims to bring children and young people closer to the natural and cultural heritage of their region through books from the publishing fund of the Krka National Park. The focus of this project is education as the basis for the preservation of nature, because knowledge is – as they say from the Park – the only value that multiplies when it is shared.
Those who know the Krka are its best spokespeople. And school libraries are the first step towards that.
