Vokrug Svieta digital archive (1861-2021)
Vokrug svi︠e︡ta /Vokrug Sveta is a Russian geography journal that began publishing in 1861. It is one of the longest-running Russian journals that was published initially from December of 1861 through 1917. It was not published from 1869-1884, 1918-1926, and during the years of WWII. This proposal envisions digitization of a complete run of the journal, as confirmed by Mike Peters of East View.
