Student feedback
This year's scientific-practical conference was really impressive. Olga Popovych, the founder of the leading publishing house of Ukraine "Kalamar", and Valentyna Bochkovska, the director of the Museum of Books and Printing in Ukraine, spoke for the students of the Publishing and Printing Institute.
Olga Mykolayivna told about the history of the publishing house's foundation, and Valentyna Hryhorivna - about the creation of the book "History of the Bible of the Old and New Testaments". It was interesting to hear about the challenges that publishers face on their way, because this information is difficult to obtain freely. It was amazing how much work was invested in the "History of the Bible", because it is the efforts of Mrs. Valentina, who slightly expanded the original text of the book, and the creative artist Olenka Polishchuk.
This conference helped make sure that I made the right choice by choosing the Department of Publishing and Editing.
