Book of Records of Ukraine is a project and trademark under which records and achievements in Ukraine are documented. It is owned by the company LLC «Ukrimage».[2] Record registration is conducted on both a paid and free basis.[3]
The project is a partner of the international «Book of Guinness World Records». However, unlike the latter, the «Book of Records of Ukraine» does not register «silly» or dangerous records.[4][3]
Despite its name, the records registered by the project are not published in book form.[4][3]
History
[edit]The project was initiated in 2002 when Oleksiy Svystunov, the owner of the «Book of Records of Russia», approached Ihor Pidchibiy with a request to help register a dishwashing record.[5] In 2002, Ihor Pidchibiy and his colleagues registered the copyright for the work «National Presentation-Image Project ‘Book of Records of Ukraine’»,[5][6] and in 2004, they registered the trademark «Book of Records of Ukraine».[5][7]
The first record registered by the «Book of Records of Ukraine» was the creation of a 10-meter-long tuxedo by designer Mykhailo Voronin.[5] As of 2012, the project had registered over 1,500 records, some of which were published on the project's website.[4] By 2018, the number of registered records reached 20,000.[3]
Initially, the project paid honorariums to record holders, but this practice was later discontinued.[5]
Competition with the «National Register of Records»
[edit]The emergence of the «National Register of Records of Ukraine» in 2010 was perceived by the «Book of Records of Ukraine» team as an illegal copying of their activities and a violation of their copyrights.[8][9]
