Museum library got 4 new books

Scientific advisor, international consultant in management and informatics and professor at the Faculty of Economics in Zagreb Velimir Srića and his wife Ana donated four author’s books to us. It is interesting to note that Mr. Srića wrote them on the island of Prvić.

Namely, Ana’s aunt is a well-known Croatian poet Vesna Parun, and for many years the Srića family has been spending their summers in Prvić Luka at the house of Vesna Parun`s late father. This house Ana inherited, restored and redecorated with much love and effort in the authentic Dalmatian form.

It was a pleasure to host this  married couple again at our Center. The conversation continued with coffee and conversation about future cooperation and opportunities for the development of the Center and the island of Prvić.

Velimir Srića was born in Zagreb in 1950, where he graduated from high school. He graduated from the Faculty of Economics, received his master’s degree from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and in 1978 received his doctorate from the University of Zagreb.
