- Abstract:
- The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the formation and development of library management of the Chuvash Autonomous Region. The purpose of the article is to consider the state of library management in Chuvashia in the 20s of the twentieth century and the main activities of reading huts and libraries in raising the educational and cultural level of the population in the period under review. The article is written on the basis of a thorough analysis of a wide range of literature on the topic, statistical collections, the study and selection of materials from central and local state archives, most of which are introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. It was revealed that in the years under study, many methods of mass work were developed and tested in practice, which, being improved at subsequent stages in connection with new tasks, have been used and used by libraries to this day: thematic book exhibitions, review evenings, literary evenings, evenings for discussion of new works of fiction, long-term mass campaigns to promote relevant books and libraries among the population, etc. It is concluded that libraries and reading rooms during the period under study gradually gained experience in cultural and educational work: from the mechanical issuance of books, passive service of readers to the search for methods of active work among the masses. By the mid-1920s, libraries and reading rooms began to switch to more organized and planned work.
