Издавачка делатност библиотека Пиротског округа
Publishing activities of libraries from the region of Pirot

Summary/Abstract: Although not obliged by law, public libraries in Serbia have been paying increasing attention to publishing in recent years. There is hardly any public library that has not registered publishing activities, primarily designed for local authors. In order to promote the homeland and its cultural values, libraries develop publishing activities, thus allowing local authors to emerge from anonymity and present their works and research, and in this way to build and develop the culture of the area. All libraries in the region of Pirot have publishing activities. The largest number of monographs has been published in the Pirot Public Library and in the Public Library "Detko Petrov" in Dimitrovgrad, which apart from the books in Serbian language also publishes books in Bulgarian language, as а minority language. The Pirot Public Library and the Public Library "Vuk Karadžić" from Bela Palanka publish two important periodicals, the yearbooks Pirotski zbornik and Belopalanački zbornik.
