Since the great historical event - the proclamation of the Act of Independence of Ukraine, the country has been expanding international cooperation in librarianship. The main areas of international cooperation, which is a priority in research institutions in the library business, are: conducting joint research; organization of international conferences, symposia, congresses and other events. Scientific conferences are one of the forms of dissemination of new information. In the modern information space, scientific institutions play an essential role in developing science, education and culture. Therefore, when evaluating a scientific institution, the number of international scientific and practical seminars, conferences, other events organized by the scientific institution, and materials (including collections of abstracts) of conferences are considered. Among the research institutions of Ukraine, which study the problems of library science, bibliography, bibliology, source studies, document science, archival science, biography, codicology and discography, history of book culture, computer science, social communications, the leading position is held by the most extensive library of Ukraine – the National Library of Ukraine, named after V. I. Vernadsky. Furthermore, the article analyzes the specifics of the organization of scientific conferences in a scientific institution, studies the directions and thematic content of such events, forms of conduct, their frequency during 1991-2021.

The study reveals the publications of the Ukrainian Free Academy of Sciences in Germany that are available in the fund of Foreign Ukrainistics Department of Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine and represent the process of its formation, activity, development, and the names of scientists whose efforts led to UFAS. Sources of funding the scientific institution and publishing opportunities was found out, and the book description of the documents along with their meaningful content was carried out. A significant number of documents published by UFAS reveal its scientific directions and opportunities. Through the efforts of UFAS in Germany, the scientific world has been replenished with dozens of important works which represent Ukrainian science. The review of UFAS publications was published in a separate series “UFAS Chronicle”, and the publication “UFAS Bulletin” published monthly reports on the activities of the institution. Some groups (sections) prepared their “Collections” for printing. Monographs on current research were being published. The first issue of the bibliographic journal “Ukrainian Bibliological News”, the main topics of which are bibliology, archival science and library science, was published in the series “Bibliography”. The magazine kept records of Ukrainian printed materials in exile, published articles-reviews of UFAS leading scientists, analyzed the history of the magazine and reviews of new books about the figures of the Ukrainian word. Separate editions were published in the same series. An important task of the activities of FUD is to open the fund and popularize the diaspora book culture. The foundations for the further development and activities of UFAS in Canada and the United States were laid precisely in Augsburg, Germany. By organizing a center for the preservation and development of Ukrainian science in Germany, Ukrainian scientists have launched activities to establish strong scientific ties with European scientists and made it possible to integrate Ukrainian science into the world.

The main article objective is a terminological analysis of «librarianship» concept. The development of theoretical concepts of librarianship as a science and as a branch of knowledge is explored. The concept of «library thought» and its correspondence with the concept of «the history of librarianship» is analyzed. The author substantiate the idea that the library thought development did not contradict the history of library science and was its important part, librarianship roots should be traced with the emergence of the first libraries. This point of view on the history of librarianship found understanding in the works by I. V. Lukashov, V. V. Skvortsov, M. I. Slukhovsky, Yu. N. Stolyarov and other library scholars. The article deals with polemic questions: when has librarianship been recognized as a science; can the first use of the concept of «librarianship» be considered as a sign of the emergence of library science. The analysis of applying the concept «library science» showed that before the early XX century it was defined as «a systematic presentation of knowledge about libraries organization and the management». The article analyzes dividing the library science into theoretical and practical parts; examines the fate of the theoretical librarianship in frames of «theoretical» discussions taken place in early 1930s, and attempts of Soviet scientists (V. A. Artisevich, I. A. Mesenyashin, N. Ya. Fridieva) to revive the theoretical library science; considers the views of Yu. V. Grigoriev substantiated the library science as independent one. Analysis of the national library science thought development in 1960s-70s of the XX century showed that its development was characterized by a scientific approach, with heightened attention to general theoretical and methodological problems that contributed to forming the librarianship as a science. The article states that in the modern terminology of the national library science there are two concepts: as a librarianship independent science and as a branch of knowledge. Combination into a single term of at least two different «library sciences» leads both to typological and substantial inconsistencies and errors, which can be seen in a variety of theoretical and practical disciplines including the word «librarianship». The author offers two options concerning use of the term «librarianship». The first one is to call the «librarianship» on the western model «library science», and the term «librarianship» applies to various disciplines (library science as a branch of knowledge). The second one is to retain in national science traditional name «librarianship» as a synonym for «library science» and not to use the word «librarianship» in the titles of different library disciplines to avoid confusion.

This article investigate the creation, in 1911, of the Serviço de Bibliographia e Documentação in the National Library from Brazil and what would have been the influence of the International Institute of Bibliography (IIB), founded in 1895 by Paul Otlet and Henri La Fontaine. Seeks to demonstrate that the creation of the Bibliography and Documentation Service can be considered part of the international cooperation project by Otlet and La Fontaine. It intends to contextualize the period of transformations by which the Brazilian National Library went through, especially during the construction of a new building and its further occupancy as well as the administrative changes implemented by its director at the time, Manoel Cícero Peregrino da Silva. The methodology consisted of bibliographic and documentation based research in the archives of the Brazilian National Library and the Mundaneum Archives Centre in Belgium as well as the Brazilian Historic and Geographic Institute and the Foreign Ministry. The article argues that the establishment of the Serviço de Bibliographia e Documentação and Boletim Bibliographico da Bibliotheca Nacional were results of the contact maintained between the two institutions. It concludes that the International Institute of Bibliography and the Brazilian National Library sustained a close relationship for some years which apparently contributed to introduce the Documentation as a discipline in Brazil.

The article examines the biography of Olga Pankratieva Teslenko (1911—1974), the eminent library scientist, developer and the first chief editor of the Library bibliographic classification (LBC). Her name is inextricably linked with the history of the national Library bibliographic classification and introduction of LBC in the practice of libraries.The purpose of the article is to reveal the significance of personality of the scientific supervisor in the formation of potential of sustainable development of the national classification system, ensuring its fundamental nature, comprehensiveness and integrity at all stages of the LBC development.The completion of publication of LBC schedules for scientific libraries (1960—1968) became an outstanding event in the national library science. Theoretical development of the LBC was most fully reflected in the Introduction to the Classification and in the numerous articles published in special periodicals. There were formulated theoretical and philosophical principles of LBC construction, substantiated the sequence of the main classes, the principles of classification of sciences. O.P. Teslenko has developed the priority table of LBC index signs for their automatic ordering. O.P. Teslenko made significant contribution to the study of issues related to the use of LBC as a language for automated information search. She carried out a lot of work on the analysis of LBC schedules in the light of the requirements of the automated information retrieval system (IRS) and developed the program of schedule optimization. As scientific supervisor, O.P. Teslenko created organizational structure for coordinating activity with the largest libraries of the country, their interaction with scientific and branch institutions and organizations cooperating in the development of the national classification.O.P. Teslenko’s articles on LBC, published in press, have found the response abroad, were translated into many languages and still serve as a source of theoretical and methodological basis in research studies on classification of sciences and library and information activities.

Sergey Esenin’s tragic end is widely known and provokes disputes to this day. The official reports put it down as a suicide. The incident could be analyzed more effectively by means of an interdisciplinary approach using the latest forensic know-how. The documented circumstances of Esenin’s death, found in recorded testimonies and interviews, as well as the materials of the Russian National Esenin Committee of Writers, are examined through the author’s own classification of forensically relevant evidence of suicide. The analysis reveals that suicide remains the most probable version. Far from solving this incident for good, these conclusions may become an important forensic contribution to the history of Russian culture.

This chapter discusses the history of and responses to global epidemics of serious diseases. Case studies of cholera, influenza, and HIV/AIDS illustrate typical reactions to pandemic events. The initial stages of a pandemic are often characterized by collective anxiety and a desire for isolation. As the pandemic progresses, there are calls for collective global responses to protect human security and contain outbreaks while maintaining international trade and travel. As pandemics enter a recovery phase, there is often a shift toward the use of advocacy to promote international cooperation, secure continued funding for global health activities, and advance other strategic goals. The rhetoric of pandemics is now being used to describe obesity and other emerging noncommunicable diseases because the language of pandemics connotes risk and demands global action. Pandemics are the result of global interactions and globalization processes, and studies of pandemics are, by definition, global studies.
