 The Regional History and Culture Self Service
Terminal is located near the first floor entrance of

 The main idea of this terminal is to give the users
a opportunity to find by themselves information
about the regional history and cultural life in Stara
Zagora in the past, included in the collections of
five different local cultural institutions. Later it
was showed as a separate section on Zahariy
Knyazheski Library web site in order to be reached
and viewed by more interested people.
