History

Until 18 July 2020, Buky belonged to Mankivka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Cherkasy Oblast to four. The area of Mankivka Raion was merged into Uman Raion.^[3][4]

Until 26 January 2024, Buky was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Buky became a rural settlement.^[5]
