Our library got featured in The Budapest Times week, a lovely piece on our founder Antonia Burrows and the story behind Közkincs Könyvtár 📚

I grew up in an age when men held open a door for women, when they walked on the outside of the footpath, when they offered to carry a bag.

Antonia Burrows is one of the key figures of the Hungarian women’s movement, the founder of Közkincs Könyvtár and a co-founder of NANE, Hungary’s first domestic violence support organisation. She has been a mentor, teacher, and inspiration to countless Hungarian feminist and civil activists.

As a British citizen, she is currently fighting to extend her residency permit and we have launched a petition to support her case.

Her permit renewal is tied to financial requirements that are impossible for her to meet as a pensioner who runs the library on minimal resources out of her own pocket. At this point, the only legal path forward is to prove she is of national interest to Hungary and every signature on this petition helps make that case.
