Abstract
This paper presents an overview of the development of Kosovan
libraries and literature between the years 1990 to 1999, one of the
most difficult decades in the county’s history. During this time, both
Kosovo’s libraries and its Albanian people suffered under the effects
of extreme political unrest. In addition to analyzing this period of
social turmoil, the paper provides a brief history of Kosovan libraries,
the oppression of the Albanians during the 1998–1999 war in
Kosovo, and an overview of the country’s contemporary libraries and
their vision for the future.
