The article is dedicated to the memory of the first director of the Library of Natural Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences (before 1991, the USSR Academy of Sciences). The Library for Natural Sciences was established in 1973 on the basis of the Sector for Special Libraries (in charge of collection development of Moscow research institutes and of their union catalog maintenance). The Library for Natural Sciences was conceived as an information library center focused on science and research information support based on modern technologies. Alexander Grigorievich Zakharov, newly-retired military professional, Lieutenant General, headed the library. In the shortest time possible, Alexander Zakharov built the centralized library system headed by the Library for Natural Sciences and meeting the demands of the time. For many years the Library’s Centralized Library System has been the largest and most developed network; the Library has been the leader in library automation based on the newest computer and network technologies. The authors have been working for the Library for over 40 years, and over 30 years under the leadership of Alexander G. Zakharov. They review the main stages of Zakharov’s career: the Great Patriotic War (he went through the war from beginning to end), his service at cosmodrome of Baikonur (launch operations, including support of Yury Gagarin’s flight), his work in the Library for Natural Sciences.

The issues of networked library interaction is examined and exemplified by the experience of the Pushchino Scientific Center Central Library (division of the Library for Natural Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences, LNS RAS). Ready-made software solutions designed by LNS RAS specialists enabled the participating libraries to implement computer-aided collection development system, union reference aids, online ordering, lending and refusal registration, digital resources access system. The authors focus, in particular, on specific networked interactions between the scientific library and users of its information services. Within the framework of the Library-Research Institute of Pushchino Center cooperation, the main efforts of the Library are focused on implementing modern network technologies, providing access to information resources, research information support, developing union Internet-based catalogs within the online order system, designing problem-oriented databases and maintaining current list of networked resources in physico-chemical biology. New library services are described, e.g. bibliometric and patent research, design and maintenance of the library website. Approaches to building network interaction with libraries of various types, institutions of memory (archives, museums, etc.), publishers’, and mass media, are discussed. The authors come to the conclusion that networked cooperation is efficient organizational and technological instrument to provide equal use opportunities for every member of library information network.

Intensive human exploration of the mountain territories, and the uncontrolled destruction of the Per-sian leopard, has led to that now the predator almost completely disappeared from the Russian part of the Caucasus. Currently, self-healing of the Caucasian leopard population is considered impossible, and the only way out of this situation is the reintroduction of species into former habitats. To solve this problem, in the framework of fundamental research of the Russian Academy of Sciences, with the support of WWF-Russia, the Program to restore the Persian leopard population in the Caucasus has been developed.

To ensure the effective functioning of the national innovation system it is required an appropriate innovation infrastructure, which is a set of economic entities providing technical, informational, human, financial, organizational-methodical and (or) other support to subjects of innovative activity necessary to create knowledge, technologies, transformation them into new products and services. A key part of the regional innovative infrastructure is a structure of patent information support of innovation processes undertaken by the State Public Scientific Technological Library of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Analytical and patent information play a leading role in strategic planning and management of innovation and intellectual property, scientific-technological and marketing problems, understanding the general level of achievements in the field of science and technology. In this regard, the most important activity of infrastructure elements of the innovation patent information support is to ensure access of economic entities to a variety of resources to effectively address issues of protection, disposition and use of rights to results of intellectual activity. These elements of the innovation infrastructure should become so called «connecting bridges» from knowledge to innovation. The author proposes the exchange mechanisms for commercialization of scientific-technological developments. Launching the project Novosibirsk Center to Support Innovation and Technology created on the base of the State Public Scientific Technological Library of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences plans to change the approach to innovations that should help to solve the regional basic problems.

First Time

It is known that the history of book collections of past centuries’ libraries, including military ones, is tragic: for many reasons, they are often either scattered or preserved in small fragments. Today, when libraries intensively work to digitize their holdings and search out historical book collections, it is very important to identify and attribute books from foreign, as well as from Russian military libraries.For the first time, the article describes the work carried out to identify publications of foreign (and partly Russian) military libraries from the rare books collection of the Library for Natural Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The article considers the publications as a source of information about scientific knowledge (military libraries were aimed to acquaint their readers with the basics of military art and the latest achievements in military science). There is shown that the content of such libraries’ collections did not exclude thematic diversity, targeted to comprehensively form the officer’s personality: professional, moral and cultural. The article examines the books of the 18th—19th centuries from military libraries of Europe, currently stored in the Library for Natural Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and the book marks in them proving the publications’ belonging to specific military libraries. There is highlighted the importance of book marks for the attribution of collections (and libraries) that existed in the past, but turned out to be scattered. The results obtained show that the publications and book marks of military book collections are a strong and reliable source in studying the history of military affairs, military science, and the history of military libraries, and confirm the need for further serious work with the library’s rare book collection.
