Over 270,000 Ukrainians have come to the United States since the February 24th, 2022, full-scale military invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation. This has raised demand for Ukrainian language materials that some public libraries have struggled to meet. In order to facilitate the acquisition pipeline for libraries developing new Ukrainian language collections, we sought to identify libraries with strong existing collections, as well as those libraries that may need assistance with building these collections.
