Goals And Objectives

The activity of methodical services is prerequisite for sustainable development of libraries and effective innovation. The article presents the results of the first survey over the last 30 years, conducted by the Center for study of problems of the development of libraries in the information society of the Russian state library in April — October 2017, aimed to analyse the organization of methodical services in the Central libraries of subjects of the Russian Federation, to assess their workforce capacity and to offer solutions to the revealed problems. The results of the data analysis (representativeness is 94%) demonstrates that in most of the Central libraries the methodical activity is the priority (core) trend, and methodical services continue to evolve. In their organization there is a great diversity, which manifests in setting the activity goals and objectives, in choosing the approaches to determining staffing levels, building a structure. The capacity of human resource in most of the libraries can be considered quite high: experts belong to the potentially productive age group, have sufficient experience, and regularly update their knowledge. Among the acute problems is lack of the approved methods for calculation of the normative standards for staffing levels of these units, as well as the requirements for professional growth training for methodologists. There is made the conclusion on the need to work out recommendations for the formation of staff size of methodological services, to identify and spread the best practices for the development of the government order for performance of works (services) on the methodological support of librarianship. For the organization of advanced professional training of methodologists, it is needed to combine the efforts of Federal libraries and actively introduce distance learning.

The article is devoted to the results of the research “Personnel of Methodologists of the Central Libraries of the Subjects of the Russian Federation”, conducted by the Center for Research on the Development of Libraries in the Information Society of the Russian State Library in 2017. The article presents the results of one of the aspects of the study related to the problems of education and professional development training of employees of methodical services of the Central Libraries of the Russian Federation. 97,9% employees of the methodical divisions have higher education that demonstrates high educational status of the methodical personnel. At the same time, almost one third of the staff does not have the specialized library training. Non-core education is represented by various disciplines, mainly of humanitarian area. Participants of the research also noted the discrepancy between the education of graduates of library qualification and modern requirements of methodical activities and the great need for continuous professional development training of staff of specialized methodical units. The author studied participation of methodologists in the activities of the professional development system, as well as the topics of these activities. There were almost no training events organized specifically for methodologists, and their participation in the numerous training events was not systematic. The analysis of educational needs of methodologists showed the greatest deficiency of events on legal subjects and organization of methodical activities. The results of the study are important for the subsequent development of the professional training strategy and system of professional development training of the personnel of methodical services.

The present research featured the illicit trade in Russian gold and silver coins in Xinjiang in the 1850's. The paper focuses on the problems of control and customs services, as well as on the difficulties connected with the trade in Russian goods. The historical analysis was based on the documents written by Konstantin Adrianovich Skachkov, the then Russian Consul in Chuguchak. The materials were obtained from the Research Department of Manuscripts of the Russian State Library. In his report, Consul K. A. Skachkov compared the state of the markets of the Russian-Chinese trade in Chuguchak and Kyakhta. He highlighted the broad prospects for trade development in Xinjiang. The Consul paid great attention to the problems on the young market of Central Asia and proposed some measures to improve the situation. He performed a comparative analysis of the trading activities of a Russian merchant and a smuggler. The analysis makes it possible to reconstruct the trading process, determine the cost of transportation, and formulate the commercial benefit resulting from the legal trade and the contraband trade. K. A. Skachkov concluded that despite the high potential for trade development, the region was torn apart by substantial internal contradictions and demanded greater attention from the government. The illicit trade in Russian coins was caused by the barter trading on the Xinjiang market in 1850's.

INTRODUCTION. This article discusses that part of the classical Eurasian concept, which is devoted to ethno-national relations prevailing in Northern Eurasia, the characteristics of the factors and traditions that determined the formation of the Russian superethnos. The content of the categories “Eurasian nationalism” is revealed, which, according to the classics of the doctrine, should become the core idea of the formation of the Russian multi-national nation. Considerable attention in the article is paid to the analysis of the correlation and interconnection of the categories “people” and “nation”, the characteristics of their specific features.MATERIALS AND METHODS. The article is based on a study of the concepts of Eurasianism presented in domestic and foreign science and the provisions of the Federal Target Program approved by the Government of the Russian Federation “Strengthening the Unity of the Russian Nation and Ethnocultural Development of the Peoples of Russia (2014 – 2020)” are considered.RESEARCH RESULTS. In the article the thesis is substantiated that the modern theoretical substantiation of the tendency for the formation of the “Russian nation” is associated with the desire to strengthen the national substrate of Russia as a single federal state and to avoid the sad experience of the split of the USSR. The author analyzes various approaches to realizing the task of forming a multi-national nation on the basis of the Russian people and shows his own position with respect to the idea of adopting a special Law on the Russian nation.DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS. The article critically evaluates the position that rigidly links the formation of a nation with the creation of its own sovereign national state which in most cases is not applicable to multinational states.

State Library

The Russian State Library, the national library of the Russian Federation (until 1992 known as Lenin State Library), began in 1862 when Count N.P. Rumyantsev bequeathed his collection of books, manuscripts, and other materials to the state. From the beginning the library received a free copy of all Russian publications. The library started to look into automation in the late 1960s. Eventually, after a series of false starts and small initiatives, a feasibility study was set up in 1995, funded by the European Commission, focusing on library automation while setting the issue in the wider context of collection development, building improvements, conservation, document supply and staff development. As a result of this study the Russian State Library was awarded a Tacis project and a budget of one million Euro over 18 months (later extended by six months, plus 300,000 Euro for the extension). Tacis fosters the development of links between EU countries and the states of the former Soviet Union and Mongolia. A key area of Tacis activity is Know-How transfer, carried out through policy advice, consultancy teams, training studies and partnerships. Several other varied projects have been initiated. Many positive changes have occurred during the project, notably in the development of staff.
