No funds to turn on heating at Romania’s National Library

29 October 2018

The heating cannot be turned on at Romania’s National Library (BNaR) for lack of funds. The staff of the library asked the Culture Ministry, to which it is subordinated, to switch the heating on but the ministry answered there are currently no funds to cover this utility, News.ro reported.

The requests of the employees came during the past month. Many users of the library have also complained about the low temperatures inside.

“It’s been cold for a month. We have sent, through the union, several requests. The ministry told us, through the administrative service, that it is not possible to turn on the heating because there are no funds. We have our own central heating system; the room it is located in is infested with fleas, a disinfection needs to be made,” an employee of the library told News.ro.

The employee explained that many users of the library stopped coming at BNaR because of the conditions.
