Armchair Traveler: Bosnia

Saturday, April 131:00—3:00 PMCollins Meeting RoomIpswich Public Library25 North Main Street, 25 North Main Street, Ipswich, MA, 01938

Join Reference Librarian Jeff Klapes, ‘The Traveling Librarian,’ for an armchair traveler’s journey to northern Bosnia. The next great up-and-coming destination in Eastern Europe, Bosnia is inexpensive, full of history, and splendidly scenic. Sarajevo, the historic capital, is a crossroads of civilizations mixing the flavors of east and west. It has had more than its share of tragic history, however, as has Srebrenica, site of the 1995 genocide, which we'll also visit.

Jeff Klapes is the Head of Reference Services at the Lucius Beebe Memorial Library in Wakefield, Massachusetts.

This program is made possible by a grant from the Coburn Charitable Society.
