Society | December 6, 2001, Thursday // 00:00

Historians from the Veliko Turnovo History Museum traced the history of the Veliko Turnovo region back from the fifth millenium B.C. till the present twenty first century and packed all the information into a single CD. This is the first time that a CD comprises all the information on a single region in Bulgaria. A total of 90 pages of text, 120 photos and numerous illustrations trace the period since the founding days of the region. The ambitious project was realized with the assistance of the Culture Ministry. The production of the multi-media disc cost BGN 9500, a total of BGN 1500 of which has been released by the Culture Ministry. The modern guide is named “Tracing time”, but his creators call it endearingly “History in a nutshell”. The information on the CD is available in five languages - Bulgarian, Russian, English, German and French. Besides being very useful to students, teachers and advertising companies, the CD is a wonderful present as well, his creators claim.
