Contribution of the Federal Libraries of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation to the Continuing Professional Education of Library Staff

Economic and socio-cultural changes occurring in the life of Russian society make high demands to the professional competence of employees. The problem of improving, supporting and developing the system of additional vocational education (retraining and advanced training of library staff) is among the priority directions of State policy in librarianship in Russia. In the conditions of libraries modernization, the changes affecting the types of library activity are inevitable. In this regard, of particular importance are not only the development of new forms of customer service, acquisition, organization and preservation of library collections, the technology of maintaining library catalogue system and card files on traditional and machine-readable media, but also work aimed at skill improvement of specialists and strategy development of personnel potential. The activity of the Federal Libraries of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation in promotion and development of additional professional education of library personnel through qualification upgrading courses and other forms of continuing education is considered.
