From the First Public Museum in Moscow to the Country’s National Library: Conference “Rumyantsev Readings—2022”

On 19—21 April 2022, the Russian State Library (RSL) hosted the annual International Research and Practical Conference “Rumyantsev Readings”. It was attended by the experts from the Russian Federation, as well as the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Republic of Armenia, the Republic of Belarus, the Donetsk People’s Republic, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, the Republic of Moldova, and the Republic of Uzbekistan.

The subject matter of the conference covers a wide range of issues on the theory and practice of library science, bibliography, and book science. Among this year’s main trends were the history of librarianship, the discovery of universal and specialised collections, and the multi-dimensional activities of modern libraries.

In 2022, the RSL celebrates a memorable date: the 160th anniversary of the establishment of the Moscow Public Museum and the Rumyantsev Museum. This major event was highlighted in both greeting addresses and scientific reports presented at the conference.

The agenda of the Readings included 15 round tables and sections. A number of meetings were broadcast on the RSL YouTube channel; some of them could be attended remotely using video conferencing tools.

The RSL publishing house “Pashkov Dom” published a two-part collection of conference proceedings, which included 163 articles by 177 authors.

Since its establishment in 1981, the Conference have been a key event for the professional community, annually drawing a large number of participants. It also contributes to the introduction of new sources into scientific circulation, the development of scientific research, the expansion of cooperation between various institutions, and intercultural communication.
