It existed in the 1970s. The last director or President that I know
was Dr. Vladimir Kozak. Any information would be appreciated.

onstage-ga,

 After an initial search, I came up with nothing for the "Slavic
Institute of New York." Was this institute connected with a University
in New York, or an independent group? Any additional information would
be helpful.

Probably an independent group. I don't remember any other details. I
learned about this organization because when I was publishing my
Polish Canadian newspaper in Toronto I received various communications
from this Institute signed by Dr. Vladimir Kozak. Thanks for any help
you can give.

I've found two very brief references online to the "American Slavic
Institute of New York" in connection with Dr. Vladimir Kozak. Perhaps
the library of a University which has a department of Slavic Studies
might be helpful in finding details about the organization.

I have made long urls into "tinyurls" to reduce the possibility of any
errors.

There was a gentleman who posted a request on newsgroups, searching
for Dr. Kozak back in 1997, you may want to contact him to see if he
was successful, and perhaps that will be a lead:

I found a reference to the Institute as the "American Slavic Institute
of New York", so I did a search for "American Slavic Institute".

Here is a link to the American Slavic Institute in Saint Paul, MN...
they may be able to provide you with some contacts:
