TRANSFORMING THE LIBRARY NETWORK OF LVIV INTO A CONVENIENT DIGITAL HUB
49 branches. Events in every district of the city. Map, filters, calendar, infrastructure. Our task was to collect all this into one intuitive, modern and flexible website.
Thus was born lmb.lviv.ua — a platform for the Lviv Municipal Library, which shows what the city’s public library is like today.
Project goal
to create a single portal for the entire network of libraries of the Lviv AH, which will be not just a catalog, but a tool for interacting with the community. Events, special projects, faces of librarians, integration with Koha — it’s all here.

The Lviv Municipal Library case is a case that changes the city.
For our siteGist team, this was not just a technical project, together we created a platform that shows that the library is not a thing of the past, but a space for live interaction, cinema, events, knowledge and people. We love projects like this.
Brustury is more than selling books – it’s about storytelling, heritage, and creating an emotional connection with readers through a modern digital platform.
