Elīna and Arturs Veismanis in 2012 and 2013 supported UL Library by donating more than 130 books about the Middle Ages and in 2014 established a family scholarship "Veritas".

Support

The donation of the Veismanis family to UL Library dates back to January 2012, when Elīna Veismane, the student of the Master’s Programme in History at UL Faculty of History and Philosophy, expressed her wish to donate books to the library. The Veismanis family are deeply interested in the medieval history and the content of the donated books was carefully examined jointly with Ilgvars Misāns, professor of the Chair of Medieval History, UL Faculty of History and Philosophy, and other teaching staff. 

In the result of this cooperation, from January 2012 till the spring of 2013, the student of the Master’s Programme in History Elīna Veismane and Arturs Veismanis had donated to the UL Library more than 130 books in English, German, Russian, Latvian and Latin.

In 2014, the Veismanis family established a scholarship "Veritas" for the students of Master’s Programme in History. In the academic year 2014/2015, the scholarship in the amount of EUR 700 was granted to the student of UL Faculty of History and Philosophy Roberts Saulītis.

Artūrs and Elīna Veismanis donated EUR 2 500 in support of the activities of the UL Faculty of History and Philosophy and studies of history in 2015.

We greatly appreciate the generous support to education and development!
