The Library of the Turkistan Branch of Imperial Russian Geographical Society
Abstract
The article is devoted to the history of creation and functioning of the library of Turkistan Branch of Imperial Russian Geographical Society (TBIRGS) during the pre-revolutionary period. The information component of the research includes archive documents, office work materials and bibliographical sources – the TBIRGS book production. The methodology of research was based on general scientific methods: analysis, synthesis and generalization. The use of historicist principle allowed considering the actual material in the context of political and socioeconomic processes. Application of logical and statistical methods allowed building up an overall picture of activity of the TBIRGS library. According to the research results, a reasonable conclusion was made that formation of the library’s fund happened mainly at the expense of donations and the book-exchange, to a lesser extent by purchase of editions. It is noted that extensive cultural and communicative links of the TBIRGS library have considerably contributed to the development of domestic book culture, the same as promoted the public awareness of activity of the Russian geographical society.
