Abstract
in Central and Eastern Europe has faced unique historical, cultural, and socio-economic challenges. This article presents the Hungarian experience with citizen science in libraries, focusing on a national roadshow organized between November 2024 and July 2025 under the aegis of the Association of Hungarian Librarians. The paper explores the historical background affecting volunteer engagement in the region, the specific strategies needed to foster participation, and the role of libraries as catalysts for community involvement in research. The roadshow’s structure, objectives, and early outcomes demonstrate how libraries, despite limited resources, can effectively implement citizen science initiatives and foster collaborations with researchers and communities. The study highlights the importance of tailored approaches, sustained outreach, and creative problem-solving to advance citizen science in Central and Eastern Europe
