  TITLE:
Great IK donation to The Viking Foundation


DATE:
December 2002

ARTICLE CONTENT:
The IK Foundation & Company has determined to donate a portion of its considerable reference library to The Viking Foundation. The Viking Foundation works to gather, collate and disseminate information about the culture and natural history of the Scandinavian Vikings.

The donation includes over 1000 books, booklets, leaflets and pamphlets related to the history of Scandinavian archaeology, art and literature, history, topography, geology and geography. This collection of books and other printed matter is well suited to the work of The Viking Foundation and will be of great use in the task of establishing a creative international centre for the study of the Viking culture and related natural history in southern Scandinavia.

OUR PURPOSE

Promoting Natural & Cultural History

WHO WE ARE

We are an international, independent learned organisation for promoting natural and cultural history.

For more than two decades IK has worked for a better understanding of the natural and cultural history of our world by means of, among other things, field work, research projects, exhibitions and publications.

As an independent and not-for-profit organisation - with a strong reputation for excellence, interdisciplinary thinking, in-depth knowledge and long-term results - IK continues to develop unique international networks of cooperation and finance in order to fulfil its mission.

A mission in which we believe that it is the right of everyone to have access to good knowledge of both local and global natural and cultural history and that an interdisciplinary and historical approach to these subjects probably makes it easier to understand life as it is today and face the future - something that affects all of us on planet earth.
