Lausanne’s CIRA (International Centre for Anarchist Research) which is now 50 years old is appealing for help. As well as a large anarchist library, with online catalogue, they also organize conferences on anarchism, both in Lausanne and elsewhere, like in Venice in 1984.
They must raise a minimum of 150,000 Swiss Francs (100,000 or $130,000) to buy their building. They are nearly there (see their website) but like the KSL depend on support from their comrades.
