/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A Hrant Dink archive is supposed to be built in the
National Library of the Congress, says the Armenian Reporter. According
to Levon Avdoyan, Ph.D., Armenian and Georgian Area Specialist of
the Near East Section, the archive will be meant for future scholars,
to leave them the primary tools they will need to analyze important
events of our days. "I firmly believe that the assassination of Hrant
Dink is one of these events, and I would like to create an archive of
hard copy materials – newspapers, broadsides, official pronouncements –
that we will keep at the Library of Congress as a collection. I would
also like to stress that I am interested in everything related to the
Dink assassination: from the texts of speeches, to memorial booklets
from churches and elsewhere, to photographs, etc," he said.
