The possibilities of using new technologies to promote the works dedicated to the salvation of the Bulgarian Jews during World War II were discussed. "This is one of the unique examples in European history.

The heroic rescue of Bulgarian Jews" could be distributed not only in the traditional ways, but also through new digital technologies. He informed Prof. Bar about the efforts of the Ministry of Transport, Information Technology and Communications in support of books. One of the initiatives is for post offices in most small towns in the country to sell books and textbooks, said the Minister
