The event “Modern Library – a World of New Opportunities”, which took place in the Toropetsk Central Library from November 26 to 30, was dedicated to this date.

The library staff offered their readers a lot of new, interesting and useful things.

On the opening day of Information Week, the book exhibition “Who Owns Information Owns the World”, organized in the reading room, presented to readers all the resources of the Toropetsk Library: books, periodicals, bibliographic, information and electronic publications.


For a group of unemployed people and students of the Toropets College, excursions “Meet the Known and Unknown Library” took place, where they had the opportunity to visually get acquainted with the resources of all departments of the library and ask questions that interested them.

A specialist from the Department of the Federal State Employment Service with a group of unemployed people from the Toropetsk region took part in the “Presentation of Real Opportunities”, which was conducted by the librarian of the reading room A.V. Latysheva.

Teachers of the Podgorodnoye secondary school were presented with an electronic presentation of the exhibition of new books “The Art of Being a Parent.” Teachers, as specialists working with children, listened with interest to the conversation about new books that arrived at the Toropetsk Central Library on the education of children and adolescents. The same event was held at a 4th grade parent meeting in secondary school No. 1.

“Information is the key to success” was the title of the scheduled meeting of the STEP club.

Boys and girls learned that if a person has access to the necessary information, then work efficiency increases, there is an opportunity to save time, and get answers to all questions of interest.

Subscription employee M.I. Kuznetsova presented to the students of the Toropets College a review of new books for young people, “The Book World of Fantasy.” Particular attention was drawn to the books: “Metro 2033” by D. Glukhovsky, and “Island of Survivors” by K. Traviss, based on which computer games were created.

“In the footsteps of the Grodno Hussar Regiment” was the name of the multimedia journey that L. I. Medvedeva, head of the local history sector, conducted for young people. Students walked through the places of battles and deployments of the Grodno Hussar Regiment,formed in Toropets in 1806.

For representatives of the older generation, L.N. Sergeeva, the subscription librarian, offered the exhibition “Favorite Prose on the Screen” and a video review of famous film novels.

The children learned about the dangers and complexity of gambling addiction, and heard sad examples about modern teenagers who exchanged real life for virtual life.

13 public events were held.

Information Day in the school library

Information Day is a comprehensive event in the system of information, reference and bibliographic work.

DI goals:

· present readers with literature on a specific topic;

· introduce literature received by the library over a certain period.

It is good if Information Days are held systematically (for example, once every 1-2 months). During DI, the librarian conducts a more complete familiarization of various categories of readers with new arrivals of literature or documentation. Moreover, groups of listeners can be small (for example, subject teachers, class teachers, educators, school administrators, etc.). Duration of DI may vary from 1 to 3 days.

Usually, DI includes :

· exhibitions and selections of literature received by the library over a certain period;

· exhibitions of reference and bibliographic publications, as well as bibliographic aids of small forms;

· bibliographic reviews;

· conversations;

· consultations with specialists.

The Information Day scenario for students may include reading individual stories or poems from the books presented at the exhibition, a short quiz made up of questions that the books on display will help answer. You can invite subject teachers to the DI who will help the librarian talk about literature on a certain topic, evaluate its merits, and determine which books need to focus the attention of school readers. Such joint work of the librarian and teachers contributes to the collective analysis of current literature and the establishment of relationships in the work of the teaching staff and the library.

It is advisable to plan and conduct information days for teachers taking into account the wishes of the school administration. When holding a thematic Information Day, it is necessary to reveal the topic as fully as possible not only with the help of literature and materials from periodicals of the school library, but also to use the capabilities of the book collections of the village libraries, the educational development center, and the Internet.

Information Day is announced in advance: in announcements, posters or invitation cards. It is important to remember that the more active the advertising of your event, the more participants the Information Day will gather.

    INFORMATION DAY
    (compass in the world of new products)

    In the interior of today, it is easier to imagine a portrait of a contemporary behind a computer monitor, with a laptop, than with a book in hand.
    The 21st century is the century of information technology, and you can’t argue with that. And yet, the opinion that you can limit your knowledge of the world around you only to TV and the INTERNET is considered a dangerous delusion.
    There is such a mission of good literature - to bring people together, to unite generations. Fathers and mothers, grandfathers, grandmothers and grandchildren, children and teachers, reading the same books, begin to understand each other better.
    N.A. Rubakin also wrote that “a library is not a place for passively issuing books to the reader, like selling goods in a shop; these are weapons and sharp weapons, these are the sparks that ignite a person with interest in science, knowledge, and struggle.”

    No matter how highly educated a person is, he still faces the tasks of cultivating conscience, humanity, and goodness, without which comprehensive development and an active life are impossible. Each of us needs an adviser, a friend, and an interlocutor. All these roles can often be fulfilled by a good, smart book. A librarian should help everyone choose just such literature.
    Our library holds traditional information days for all categories of readers. During the day you will be able to get acquainted with new books on various topics and listen to a detailed review of new arrivals.
    Today, libraries remain the most accessible centers of culture for the population. We notice that the number of active, regular readers is decreasing. Reader requests are more often related to satisfying immediate or entertainment needs. In children and adolescents, educational and cognitive motives predominate. Particular attention is paid to the category of elderly readers. They are interested in the series “health”, “Women’s novels”, detective stories, “This is interesting”, “Life of wonderful people”, etc.

    On October 26, an information day was held at the MCD "MCB". The readers were presented with the latest fiction, scientific, educational, and reference literature. Particular attention was paid to a series of books on medicine, technology, and agriculture. Students are offered textbooks on economics, accounting, and law. New authors aroused great interest: Coelho, Vishnevsky, Shilova, N. Perumov, F. Pullman, S. Lukyanenko. The fantastic series “S.T.A.L.K.E.R”, as well as authors such as R. Glushkov, V. Shalygin, V. Orekhov, A. Stepanov, attracted the attention of young people. Fans of women's novels were also pleased.
    10th “A” class was invited to review new arrivals. Chaltyrskaya Secondary School No. 1 (classroom teacher: G. G. Chibichyan). The librarian of the reading room, A. V. Shakirova, gave an introductory speech about the role of libraries in the modern world, about the importance of books in human life. Then she reviewed new arrivals in the “Avanta” series of encyclopedias: “Great people of the world”, “Cultures” of the world”, “Languages ​​of the world”, “Biology”, “Art”, “Great commanders”, “Cars of the world”. The students were exposed to the value of these publications, their information and encyclopedic material, which will help them in the educational process. The children were especially interested in a series of books about civilizations: “Byzantine Civilization”, “Japanese Civilization”, “The Civilization of Ancient Rome”, etc.
    The series of books “Mysteries of Ancient Civilizations”: D. Lang “Armenians”, “Georgians”, E. Parker “Tatars”, T. Sulimirsky “Sarmatians”, were especially noted. The students were attracted by the design and content of the books, and the relevance of studying the peoples of the Caucasus in the modern world.
    Librarian M. S. Arzumanyan reviewed new acquisitions in the “Discover the World” series, including books by G. A. Krylov “Cars”, “Great Discoveries and Inventions”, Chernenko G. T. “Motorcycles”, Makhlin M. D. “ Insects”, Shpakovsky V.O. “Indians”, etc. This series of books attracted the attention of students with its bright design and brevity of presentation of educational material.

    Our culture is an integral and integral part of the global cultural heritage in its highest manifestations. We won the world's biggest battles, were the first to conquer space, won every possible sports title, etc. The books in the “Name of Russia” series will tell about all this - from the largest project of the year on Russian television: “Alexander II”, “A. S. Pushkin", "A. V. Suvorov” and others. Who is the main hero of the fatherland? Ruler? Martyr? Poet? Warrior? Thinker? The country has made a historical choice, and books will tell us about our greatest compatriots in the entire history of the country.
    The following books were offered to help vocational education: Baranovsky K. A. “Waiter - Bartender”, “Tile Maker”, “Joiner - Carpenter”, etc.
    The review was completed with the proposed literature from the “World of Fantasy” series. Science fiction is fascinating reading, these are books in which science is present insofar as...
    Our new products were of great interest to listeners and visitors. Authors such as O. Volotskaya “Enter the Shadow”, A. Gravatsky “Mama”, D. Kazakov “Invasion of the Chimera” and others are especially readable today.
    For Information Day, a bulletin of new arrivals was prepared, booklets “Native Land”, “World of Fantasy”, “How to Maintain Health” were published, including bibliographic lists of new products.
    Next, the students independently familiarized themselves with the new literature. Many of them took home the books they liked. Throughout the day, all readers could freely get acquainted with new products and choose a book to their liking.
    “Books are ships of thought,” said the ancient philosopher. And we hope that this ship will never enter the harbor of silence and despondency, but will carefully carry its precious cargo from generation to generation.

    White snow, blue ice,
    Golden cycle
    Christmas trees, pranks, undertakings,
    Cereals, streets, guests,
    Laughter, shine and flight,
    It is a New Year!

    S. Shestakov

    In the Library, the center of communication and information, a real holiday was held on New Year's Eve: with Father Frost and the Snow Maiden, with the Horse - the symbol of the year, with bunnies, bears and other little animals. Princes and princesses, beautiful ladies and musketeers also came to the holiday. Everyone had fun - the guys read poems, sang songs, and danced around the Christmas tree to the music. The very real Santa Claus handed out gifts and did not forget to ask what kind deed the guest of the holiday had done in the past year. The children quietly whispered their wishes to Santa Claus.

    Our dear Friends of the Library - may all your wishes come true! Dear Grandfather Frost, put only five boxes under the Christmas tree for our readers: fill the first with health, the second with luck, the third with kindness, the fourth with patience, and put faith in the fifth! And tie all these boxes with a ribbon of happiness! Thank you, Grandfather Frost!

    We invite you to the exhibition "Talisman of the Year"

    Dear readers! An exhibition of creative works “Talisman of the Year” has opened at the Library - a center for communication and information! You can view the exhibition during Library opening hours.

    Library New Year's trip

    The New Year holidays have begun at the Library - Center for Communication and Information.

    New Year... There is something magical and mysterious about it. In all countries, the New Year is celebrated differently, but everywhere this holiday has common features: hope for happiness and belief in miracles.

    Today, students from school 24 made a New Year's trip to different countries, got acquainted with the interesting traditions and customs of celebrating the New Year of other peoples.

    The children were surprised to hear the touching story of the New Year’s song “A Christmas Tree Was Born in the Forest” and the extraordinary fate of its author, R. A. Kudasheva. They took part in a real performance, where they themselves were actors. They had to be a Christmas tree, a blizzard, a peasant, and a horse. The rest accompanied the actions by singing the main New Year's song.
    The "finest hour" with New Year's riddles revealed the participants - the winners, who had to fight in moving competitions for the main prize.

    Not everywhere on our planet the New Year comes at the same time, not everywhere the New Year's fun smells of a Christmas tree and frost, there are an incredible number of signs, beliefs and legends among different peoples, but this holiday is always associated with joy and hope for the future.
    On New Year's Eve, wishes come true,
    On New Year's Eve, everything in life works out.
    Problem books suddenly become easy,
    Fortune comes to the losers
    All grievances and sorrows are forgiven,
    Enemies become true friends -
    All evil evaporates, probably.
    The light becomes much better -
    Of course, there is no more beautiful holiday.

    Healthy Lifestyle Day

    At the Library - a center for communication and information, November 28 was declared Healthy Lifestyle Day. On this day, the campaign “Change a cigarette for candy” took place. The participants of the campaign were readers aged 14 years and older. The opening of the action began with the show trial “Cigarette Trial,” which took place as part of the information hour “Let everyone have a tomorrow.” For a whole hour, together with students from school 24, library staff talked about health, a healthy lifestyle and bad habits that destroy our health.

    Human health is the main value in life. You can't buy it for any money. Anyone who believes that only middle-aged and elderly people should take care of their health is deeply mistaken. “Take care of your dress again, and take care of your health from a young age” - these are not empty words, because being sick, it is impossible to realize your dreams, you will not have enough strength to overcome life’s challenges. Being healthy has become both fashionable and prestigious. The discussion was based on a booklet specially prepared for this meeting, “Don’t Die in Ignorance,” which talks about what the concept of “Healthy Lifestyle” includes:

    • Movement
    • Hygiene
    • Nutrition
    • Rejection of bad habits

    As a result of the meeting, we came to the conclusion that the words of the famous ancient Greek physician Hippocrates are relevant at all times: “Your health is the most valuable thing you have. You are given only one organism for your entire life. If you think that because you are healthy now, you will always be healthy, you are mistaken.”
    There is a scientifically proven fact that a healthy lifestyle allows people to live up to a hundred years or more! These people do not smoke, do not drink, and lead a healthy lifestyle. Let's remember that the foundation of a healthy millennium is our healthy century! Good health is the basis for a long, happy and fulfilling life.

    "Meetings on Zavelichye"
    On the occasion of the 85th anniversary of the birth of V.S. Pikulya

    On October 24, in the Library - the center of communication and information, a regular meeting was held in the club “Meetings on Zavelichye”, dedicated to the 85th anniversary of the birth of V.S. Pikul.

    Fate gave the writer only 62 years of life. Over 40 years of literary activity, Valentin Pikul created more than 30 novels and stories. All of his work, from the first to the last line, serves to instill in the reader a sense of patriotism, respect for the memory of ancestors, and love for the Motherland.

    Of course, V. Pikul’s novels are not documentary narratives. But the writer’s undoubted merit is that he managed to attract the attention of readers to history - first of all, to Russian history. He managed to combine the chronicle of historical events with a fascinating plot, which led to the extraordinary popularity of his novels.

    They were published in magazines, which were then sold in copies. Pikul's books were sold using coupons as a reward for donated waste paper. All his books were a huge success, his popularity was extraordinary.

    The writer himself wrote in his autobiography: “Knowledge of the past of the Fatherland makes a person richer in spirit, stronger in character and stronger in mind. History instills in us the necessary sense of national pride. Comparing the past with the present (and drawing conclusions for the future), the reader should know that our state has not had blissful times, and the life of the Russian people has always been associated with overcoming unprecedented crises.”

    His fans gathered to meet the writer. Especially for this meeting, the writer’s books were selected from gifts from readers and offered as gifts to all lovers of the writer’s work. Everyone liked this gift and we dare to hope that it will take its rightful place in the personal libraries of our readers.

    Poetry of conscience and love
    To the 90th anniversary of the birth of E. Asadov

    On September 26, a meeting of the “Meetings on Zavelichye” club took place in the library. Kids from MDOU No. 53 “Cinderella” and the vocal group of the Children’s Center “Nadezhda” with teachers came to congratulate the club members on the holiday of people of elegant age.
    The evening of the meeting continued with the reading of favorite poems.

    A long time ago, one of our library employees was given an old notebook with poems by a reader, among which were poems by E. Asadov. Now this notebook is more than forty years old... It turned out that many members of the club carefully kept the same notebooks, and they kindly agreed to bring them...

    They say that the life of a poet is reflected to one degree or another in his works. But it also happens that the fate of an artist is already a legend in itself, and in this case a special reader’s interest arises in it. The life of E. Asadov is an example of such a fate. Having gone through the war from 1941 to 1944, E. Asadov had many awards, among which was the Golden Star of the Hero of the Soviet Union. But the poet considered the most important, most expensive reward to be the trust in himself and the love of millions of readers.

    As a reward for my work,
    Without any loud statement,
    Shining eyes, firework smiles
    And a million heartbeats.
    And even without the regalia of great rank,
    I may be a hundred times happier than everyone else.
    And to be more precise, the people’s recognition -
    The highest of awards.

    When Eduard Asadov was asked what topics concerned him most - military, civil, lyrical or, perhaps, poems about nature? He answered like this: “For me there are no favorite or least favorite topics. For I write not with a cold mind, but with my heart. And only about what deeply concerns me. And I consider lyricism not only poems about love, but in general everything that comes from my pen. What passed through the heart is lyrics.” In the bewitching lines about love, war, friendship, nature, feelings, everyone can find something of their own. At our meeting, almost everyone present read E. Asadov’s favorite lines. He is remembered, his poems are still loved...


    When I perish in a thunderstorm,
    My friends! Don't believe in my death!
    I am your poet! I fought against evil
    For your happiness with a bullet and a verse,
    But for a poet there is no death!

    Results of the "Best Reader's Form" campaign

    On September 15, the Library - Center for Communication and Information held a summing up of the results of the summer campaign "Best Reader's Form". The library staff aimed to identify and encourage the best readers and users. The nominations in the competition were very diverse: “The most sensible reader”, “Lover of book secrets”, “Musical polymath”, “Reading girlfriends”, “The most inquisitive reader”, etc.

    On the day of summing up, many readers came with their mothers and fathers, and together they all took part in a literary duel for the LUCK PRIZE. To receive it, the children had to prove that they had not only read a lot of books, but also remembered the book characters and could talk about their adventures and wanderings. The parents also had to work hard - they recalled unprecedented animals from fairy-tale lands and helped name given objects from the black box. The LUCK PRIZE was won by Alexander Alexandrov, a 5th grade student at the Bi-school, and everyone else received certificates of gratitude and books as gifts.

    Information Day "An amazing gift - THE WORD"

    "Sand Fantasies"

    On August 23, at the Library - Center for Communication and Information, teacher Anastasia Vladimirovna Dvornichenko conducted a master class on sand painting.

    Interaction with sand is one of the most popular areas of art therapy in the world. Experts have long paid attention to the positive psychological effect of learning to paint with sand. Classes allow you to get rid of stress, fears, worries, and help relieve tension, anxiety and phobias. Nowadays, classes conducted by teachers not only with children, but also together with their parents are very common! Creating a picture by a child with the help of mom or dad gives him a lot of positive emotions, and helps parents better understand their child!

    Children of all ages came to the master class - from 3 to 12 years old - and everyone was interested!

    With the help of the teacher and parents, a handful of sand in the hands of children turned into a butterfly, a dolphin, or even a forest or the sea! The children quickly mastered the techniques of drawing in the sand. It turned out to be interesting, useful and just great! Everyone received a booklet as a souvenir - a reminder “Sand Fantasies”.

    Children's writer Masha Lukashkina visiting the library

    R.L. Stevenson "The Book"
    (translation by M. Lukashkina)

    Look how the kids jump
    Around the book given to him.
    And you follow their example:
    Rejoice, jump in moderation.
    With the same curiosity as children,
    Flip through these pages.
    Read it either silently or out loud.
    And don’t be deaf to the meaning.

    Pink glasses from M. Lukashkina
    Who do you think needs rose-colored glasses? Probably someone who is in a bad mood.
    The children who came to the meeting with children's writer Maria Lukashkina were in a great mood. They became acquainted with the poems of Maria Mikhailovna, learned to determine poetic meters, and realized that books are interesting not only to read, but also to write. After all, the author can always explain where “old ladies come from,” “where the paths end,” or “where gnomes live.”

    Maria Lukashkina often publishes her works in Murzilka. She “brought” the main character, Murzilka, to the meeting. He met the guys very quickly, became friends with them, and gave everyone his magazine as a souvenir, advising them to read it more often.

    It turned out that many guys are trying to write poetry. For the poem “Cities,” the author, Ksenia Sopenko, a student of school 25, received a prize from M. Lukashkina - the book “Rose-Colored Glasses.”

    Video report about the meeting in the library

    Information Day "My land is familiar and unfamiliar"

    On June 18, the Library - Center for Communication and Information hosted Information Day “My Land Is Familiar and Unfamiliar.” Children from children's health camps at schools No. 8, 24, and 4 took part in the events held as part of the Information Day.

    Our guests took a correspondence trip to the protected areas of the Pskov region, visited the Polistovsky Nature Reserve, and learned about many wonderful inhabitants of the swamp region. The trip was called “Small Wonders of Big Nature” and, indeed, it is surprising that the little sundew is an insectivorous plant, the grass and sharp-faced frogs and the gray toad are also small inhabitants of swamps... The library workers prepared a lot of educational information for this meeting. For example, at the exhibition of books “Protected Places of the Pskov Region” material was presented about plants and animals listed in the Red Book of the Pskov Region.

    Literature review “Through a book into the natural world” included the following books:

    Shishkin. The Tale of the Forest Artist/ [Galina Vetrova]. - M.: White City, 2001. - 11 p.

    “Many artists lived in Russia, but few were as famous as Shishkin.

    More than anything else, he loved to depict forests, rivers, trees... All together this is called “landscape”. And almost always in his paintings the bright sun was shining, the blue sky was shining, and the grass was green. He loved everything to be beautiful, strong, healthy” - this is a fairy tale about art.

    Fiction is closely intertwined with real history and helps the young reader easily remember the necessary terms, important facts, and most importantly, the paintings of the famous artist themselves.

    In order to find yourself in a wild forest, it is not at all necessary to take a train ticket every time and go to distant lands - you can simply reach out to the bookshelf and take a book by Nikolai Sladkov, sit comfortably in your favorite corner and be transported to the beautiful world of nature... In the forest you can see a lot of interesting things.

    You will learn, for example, how bears wake up in the spring because the melted snow has “wet their pants.” Here's a test for your taste: what do you think tastes better - willow buds or birch buds? You will learn that there are birds that do not fly to warm regions for the winter, but on the contrary, they fly to us, to our forests.

    The writer Nikolai Sladkov dedicated all his works to nature. He wrote: “Everyone goes to the forest to pick berries, mushrooms, and nuts. What if you go into the forest following a riddle? It is interesting to collect berries, mushrooms, nuts, and it is even more interesting to look for riddles. What about mushrooms and nuts? Once you collect it, you will calm down. And if you look for riddles, you will lose peace. And when you find a riddle, give me the answer, so go into the forest and look for the answer. And off we go - no end in sight!”

    Read this richly illustrated book and you will learn a lot about our “green friend”. Each forest has its own appearance and character. The plants in it are arranged in tiers.

    In this amazing book you will meet such familiar and yet unfamiliar creatures - trees. Find out how many years forest giants live and how they manage to become so huge. You will read about what forests there are on Earth and what amazing trees grow in them. You can also meet forest peoples who have made their homes in forests for thousands of years. Having an excellent understanding of plants, they knew which of them were poisonous and which could be used as medicine. In some parts of the world, people still live in forests. Their life proceeds in complete harmony with nature.

    But recently, the existence of forest peoples has been threatened by the invasion of civilization - intensive cutting of trees and unusual diseases that they contract from tourists. Unusual information is contained on the pages of the book, where trees are heroes of myths and legends. For example: in Scandinavian mythology there is a tree called the “World Tree” - this is a huge ash tree growing on a distant unknown island. Its roots go to the underworld, and its branches reach the heavens and extend over all the countries of the world. The tree feeds the gods, people, and all animals. Time spent reading this book is time spent benefiting your horizons.

    The prepared information was accompanied by video materials: “The tallest trees”; "The most beautiful trees"; “The most unusual trees”, etc. The presenter prepared photographs of a simple and at the same time unusual plant in our city - the globular willow. Based on the photographs, we brainstormed “The Mystery of Our City”: watch a video series of images of a tree that grows in our city. What is the name of the tree? There was no limit to surprise, since no one guessed this tree.

    Everyone was given the opportunity to make leaflets with prohibitory signs: what not to do in the forest!
    During Information Day, our readers expanded their knowledge about wildlife, got acquainted with educational environmental literature, and read poems about nature:

    Nature is home
    in which we live,
    And the forests rustle in it,
    rivers flow and splash.
    Under the blue sky
    under the golden sun
    We want in that house
    live forever.

    Pushkin Day of Russia

    There is one name that is known and dear to every person since childhood. Pushkin...
    In memory of the great Russian poet from school 4, the library of the Center for Communication and Information held a literary festival “What kind of wisdom is in these fairy tales!”

    I read Pushkin's fairy tales
    And I see before me
    Cat in Chains of a Scientist
    And a squirrel under a pine tree.
    The queen sits proud
    And he looks in the mirror,
    And the mirror is magical
    He tells her the truth.
    Beautiful princess
    Lies on the bench
    A faithful dog
    It circles around her.
    Heroes of Pushkin's fairy tales
    Always with me, everywhere:
    Both in joy and in sorrow,
    In sadness and trouble.
    They will come to my aid
    They'll cheer me up.
    I will remember them
    They are my friends.

    (Baranovskaya Oksana, Velikoluksky district, Pskov region)

    From the introductory conversation, young admirers of A.S. Pushkin learned new facts about little Sasha’s childhood. The children's story about their years of study at the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum aroused particular excitement and questions among the children. They were interested to know how the lyceum of that time differed from a modern orphanage or boarding school. The children actively participated in the literary quiz “The best expert on A.S. Pushkin’s fairy tales,” and together they guessed the characters and names of the fairy tales. The Scientist Cat gave the children a magic Lukomorsky bag, in which various things from Pushkin’s fairy tales were hidden.

    At the end of the event, children enjoyed reading their favorite lines from the poet’s poems near the book exhibition.

    Summer holiday and books in the library

    Another school year has ended. The celebration of summer, sun, laughter and, of course, books in the Library - Center for Communication and Information lasted for several days.

    The holiday was accompanied by miracles and adventures on the fabulous island “Reading”. Our guests showed their knowledge by cleverly answering the questions of comic exams, for example, they had to remember a fairy-tale character who goes out of his way (the Frog Princess) or name the name of a character whom “the Poles call - Edzina, the Czechs - Ezinka, the Slovaks - Jerzy Baba" (Baba Yaga).

    Having passed the exams, the celebration continued on the street, where they had to show not only their knowledge of the books they had read, but also their strength, endurance, and dexterity.

    In the first days of the holidays, the children received a wonderful holiday as a gift! So let the coming summer be kind, warm, bookish!

    Campaign "I want to be friends with nature"

    On June 5, the first guests of the Library - Center for Communication and Information were children from kindergarten No. 53 “Cinderella” - this is how the campaign to attract preschoolers to reading began.

    The children met the writer and artist E. Charushin, with his drawings and illustrations for stories. We read and discussed stories about the little kitten Tyupka. They excitedly recalled and recited poems about cats; those who did not know the poem described their pet with the help of leading questions from the presenter. For example:
    Librarian: “Sonya, what breed is your cat?”
    Sonya, after thinking a little: “Normal.”
    Librarian: “Renata, does your cat like to eat meat?”
    Renata: “Loves me.” He has no teeth, I also have no teeth, they fell out (opens and shows his mouth)"
    Librarian: “Vitya, show me how big your cat is?”
    Vitya: “So, so-oh, so-oh-oh (from the lump depicted with the help of palms folded together, the “cat” grows huge as these palms open)!”

    The meeting ended with friendly meowing from children and librarians.

    To the 1150th anniversary of Slavic writing

    The 1150th anniversary of the creation of Slavic writing was celebrated in the Library - Center for Communication and Information with the Information Day “Letters of Slavic Patterned Literature”.

    The exhibition “Enlightened the Slavic Land” featured publications dedicated to the creators of the first Slavic alphabet, Cyril and Methodius, who tell about the life and feat of the first teachers of the Slavs. These learned men created the Slavic alphabet, which we use to this day.

    The book aroused great interest among young readers:

    Voskoboynikov, V. M. Kirill and Methodius/ Valery Voskoboynikov; artist Yu. and M. Cherepanov. - M.: ROSMEN, 2005. - 63 p. - (Soul of Russia. Our Orthodox saints).

    The book contains many interesting details not only about the life of Cyril and Methodius, but also a story about Byzantium, about the ancient cities of Crimea, about the inhabitants of the Slavic lands, about the struggle for Orthodoxy.

    The hour of knowledge “The ancestors skillfully decorated books” was attended by 5th grade students of Lyceum No. 4. I was surprised to hear and look at the information that books in the old days were decorated with gold, silver, and precious stones, that books had locks and legs on which the book was placed, and only then opened for reading. The children believed that in public libraries books were chained to the shelves with iron chains only when they saw the corresponding photo of the slide presentation.

    On this day, a blitz workshop “Once upon a time there was a word” was held for readers in the “direct statement” format. Schoolchildren were offered outdated words for identification, which they could interpret on their own or with the help of dictionaries: SUBTRACTING - teaching, VERB - word, LEPSHY - the best, KHYTRETS - artist, creator, LEPOTA - beauty, etc. On this day, the children learned what it means to be not just “classmates”, but “classmates”.

    And they became them: “in an old Russian school there was a custom: when a student completed some part of his education - learned the letters, read the first book - he brought a “pot of porridge” to the teacher for science. Since then, classmates have been called all those who studied together, which means they ate the same porridge.”

    The porridge, cooked according to an old recipe, was tasty and healthy!

    “And the book leaves us with the memory of the war”

    On May 7 at 11.00, as part of the International Campaign “We read to children about the war,” loud readings “And the book leaves us with the memory of the war” were held at the Library-Center for Communication and Information. 1st grade students from 24 schools took part in the event.

    The guest of honor was the veteran of the Great Patriotic War, Nadezhda Efimovna Glazunova. She met the war as a teenager, but despite her young age, she worked in the rear, replacing adults who went to the front. Then she joined an underground organization. Together with the same boys and girls, she helped the partisans blow up enemy warehouses and vehicles, went on reconnaissance missions, and rescued wounded soldiers.

    After Nadezhda Efimovna’s speech, a minute of silence was announced in memory of the victims, and then the guys congratulated her on the holiday, reading poetry and presenting flowers.

    The book by Yu. Yakovlev “How Seryozha went to war” was chosen for joint reading. After listening to the text of the fairy tale, first-graders learned how little Seryozha turned into a fighter, in whose chest his heart beat, gained strength and grew stronger, capable of stopping any enemy at the right moment, and in the boy’s mind the words of his Grandfather sounded: “You wanted to know how they accomplish a feat... This is worth a human life.”


    We will not forget about that war,

    Passed already in the last century.

    She's in you, she's in me,

    As in every Russian person.

    (I. Nikitina)

    Festive meeting of the club “Meetings on Zavelichye”

    On May 6, a festive meeting of the “Meetings on Zavelichye” club took place in the Library - Center for Communication and Information.

    Among the club members there are veterans of the Great Patriotic War, children of war, and home front workers.

    Therefore, everyone who came for the evening was greeted by a festive “fireworks” on the asphalt, which was arranged by preschool children from kindergarten No. 35 and 53.

    They spent a long time and diligently drawing their gifts to the veterans on the asphalt, then very touchingly congratulated everyone present and presented them with flowers.

    After the warm words, the evening participants recalled what everyone experienced during the war. Their memories were accompanied by the book exhibition “Victory Lives in Everyone’s Heart” and the presentation “Chronicle of War. 1941 - 1945"

    Master classes for Easter "Easter mosaic"

    On the eve of the bright holiday of Easter in the Library - Center for Communication and Information, members of the Pskov regional non-profit public organization "Flower - Seven Flowers" Zlata Yuryevna Orekhova and Anastasia Vladimirovna Dvornichenko prepared and conducted a series of master classes with preschool children dedicated to this holiday.

    The preschool children listened with great attention to Russian Easter traditions, talked about the traditions of their families, enjoyed coloring eggs, making Easter trees using different techniques, and “baking” Easter cakes.

    Some of the jointly completed works can be seen at the exhibition in the Pogankin Chambers, the rest of the works are presented at the exhibition in the library.

    A few words about Easter

    The Easter holiday is a centuries-old tradition, the “holiday of holidays,” glorifying the victory of good over evil, life over death, light over darkness. Easter, such a bright holiday, united people in a single feeling, mood and state of mind. It also united families. Family members, even if only for a short time, gathered together, united by a common cause: preparation for the holiday, a joyful feeling, a cheerful feast. And now Easter, and with it those rituals and customs that have developed over centuries, are returning to Russian soil.

    During Lent, all kinds of games and amusements were prohibited, and with Easter, fun activities for young people began. The celebrations were held outdoors. So from Easter they began to swing on the swings, and festivities began with fun games, round dances, play round dances, and round dance songs. One of the widespread and favorite Easter entertainments was rolling paintballs. For this purpose, special trays with a groove were made. The players sat opposite each other at a certain distance and, on command, rolled the eggs into trays. If a rolled egg hit another player’s egg and broke it, then the player took the broken egg for himself. Young boys and girls climbed onto the roofs of houses to better see how the sun would “play” and “have fun”.

    In Rus' there was a belief that the sun “plays” on Easter. The children addressed the sun with chants:
    Shine, sun, brighter,
    Summer will be hotter.
    And winter is warmer,
    And spring is sweeter!
    Mushrooms will grow in the forest,
    There are beans in the garden,
    There is rye and barley in the field,
    There are green hops in the garden.

    And how beautiful and joyful the Easter table is! Traditionally, Easter dishes have been and remain Easter, Easter cake and colored eggs. In the Russian tradition, they started preparing Easter dishes in advance: on Monday, Tuesday they painted eggs, on Wednesday - Thursday they baked Easter cakes, made Easter, and on Saturday they blessed Easter food in church. Blessed eggs, Easter cakes, and Easter were always placed in the center of the table. Initially, it was customary to paint eggs only red, but now the flight of fancy is not limited to this.

    Local history game "Pskov through the centuries"

    On April 26, employees of the Library - Center for Communication and Information, together with the MBOU DOD "Center for Children and Youth Tourism and Excursions" held the annual citywide local history game at the stations "Pskov through the centuries."

    Teams of students from grades 6 to 9 from city schools were invited to participate in the game. In total, more than 160 people took part.

    The game took place traditionally at stations. At each station (the Kremlin, the monument to V.I. Lenin, the Library - Center for Communication and Information, the Tourism Center), the children completed various tasks to know the main events in the history of the city. Each team prepared a creative task on the topic “A gift to Pskov for the 1110th anniversary of the first mention in the chronicle...”.

    Talent is a miracle that is not accidental...

    The Library - Center for Communication and Information hosted the next meeting of the “Meetings on Zavelichye” club, dedicated to the work of the wonderful poet E. Yevtushenko. His name has long been firmly established in modern poetry and has become widespread in the lives of people of different generations. The popularity of E. Yevtushenko’s poetry lies not only in his outstanding poetic talent, but also in his special indifference to human destinies, the ability to find the key to the souls of different people. In 1956, the twenty-three-year-old poet announced himself so loudly and impressively that he was heard by everyone, and what was said in those distant years still rings:

    I'm different -
    I'm stressed out
    and idle,
    I'm whole -
    and inappropriate
    inconvenient,
    shy and arrogant
    evil and good.
    I love so much.
    So that everything is interspersed!
    And so many things were mixed up in me -
    from the west
    and to the east,
    from envy to delight!

    It is clear that not everything in Yevtushenko’s poetry is equally strong and convincing. But he explains his point of view meticulously, in detail; always wants to be objective in his poems, he loves people and writes about them warmly and respectfully, and this is the main thing!
    The conversation about the poet was accompanied by reading poetry and watching videos.

    “Skillful hands scrape”

    On April 18, as part of the project “Get to know your native land”, the Library - Center for Communication and Information held a master class “Skillful hands scrape”, which was conducted by Elena Dmitrievna Rumyantseva, a well-known ceramist in our city.

    Since time immemorial, people have sculpted from clay objects necessary for everyday life, but in the hands of talented craftsmen, the most ordinary things turned into real works of decorative and applied art. Elena Dmitrievna reminded the children that the best tool is our hands and a good mood with which to start working. And clay is such a miracle; it will tell you what and how to sculpt!

    Each person present received a piece of “raw” clay - and the work began to boil! While the guys were trying to understand what their piece of clay was telling them, Elena Dmitrievna was talking about herself, her hobby, where she could prepare clay and how to process it. By the end of the meeting, the guys made a whole army of cats, hedgehogs, robots and other clay preparations from identical pieces of clay. At home, the guys will dry them and paint them. To make the work brighter and more interesting, librarians recommended turning to the book: Fedotov, G. Obedient clay : basics of artistic craft / Gennady Fedotov. - M.: "AST-Press", 1997. - 141 p.

    “The first step has been taken, and everything else will depend on taste and imagination, on hard work and inquisitiveness. It’s not the gods who burn the pots…” Elena Dmitrievna admonished her students.
    And to show what they had previously learned, the children brought their works to the library and created the exhibition “Our hands are not for boredom.”

    Farewell to the ABC

    On April 17, the “Farewell to the ABC” holiday was held in the Library - Center for Communication and Information for first-graders from school 24.

    Months of hard work have flown by. During this time, the guys grew up a lot, matured, learned a lot, learned a lot. We experienced our first difficulties and learned to overcome them. An atmosphere of surprise, delight, and interest in reading reigned throughout the holiday.

    The children enjoyed solving charades and puzzles and making up mini-stories about the first school book - The ABC. The exhibition “Letter by letter, book by book” helped them in this, where only a few of the fun and entertaining “alphabet books” created by different authors were presented.

    The meeting continued with the compilation of their “fairytale” alphabet. The guys unanimously remembered their favorite book characters and arranged them in alphabetical order. The meeting ended with a reading of poetry by contemporary children's writers. As a souvenir, everyone received multi-colored bookmarks with a recommended list of literature and sweet prizes.

    For Cosmonautics Day



    For Cosmonautics Day

    On April 12, several meetings with students dedicated to Cosmonautics Day were held in the Library - Center for Communication and Information.

    Who among us has not been attracted by the amazing grandeur of the stars, who has not dreamed of flying to the Moon or finding out if there is life on Mars?
    The starry sky is a mystery that nature gave us, and our events slightly lifted the curtain on the secrets of the Cosmos for the children.

    At our meetings, the guys learned about the history of space exploration, about the profession of an astronaut, about how people work, live, and relax in a space home.
    The children were interested in how astronauts sleep and work, how and what they eat. The conversation, in which everyone took part with great pleasure, proceeded very lively. The guys learned what weightlessness is and for an hour they felt like real astronauts. The meeting ended with a review of books from the exhibition “For Future Cosmonauts.”

    More than a hundred students from schools No. 4 and No. 8 became acquainted with books dedicated to space.

    "Bibliographic carousel"

    Carousels, carousels,
    They sat down, they sat down, they flew away,
    Spun, spun,
    They buzzed and rolled!
    They shook, they screamed,
    They held hands together.
    How breathtaking
    Wow!
    N. Krasnyanskaya

    On April 11, the “Bibliographic Carousel” began its work at the Library - Center for Communication and Information. Participants in the lesson cycle are students in grades 2 and 4.
    At the first lesson, the guys unanimously recalled what new they had learned about the book last year - the history of the book, the structure and reference apparatus of a modern book.

    The meeting continued with a detailed introduction of encyclopedias to the children. The children learned that children's encyclopedias come in a wide variety of varieties: single- and multi-volume, bright, colorful and modest, with detailed, entertaining texts and laconic, comic-book-like with brief comments... And there are universal, industry-specific, thematic, regional encyclopedias... And in every encyclopedia We have our own reference apparatus, with the help of which the children searched for information.

    In a playful way, schoolchildren completed practical tasks to consolidate new material. To the question: “What did you learn new about yourself at the library event?”, the guys collectively came to the answer that reference books are interesting and reliable assistants in their studies!

    Information Day "History of language - history of people"

    “The history of language - the history of the people” was the name of the Information Day held at the Library, a center of communication and information. In the program of the day:
    Opening of the exhibition “Precious Treasures of Words” with an overview of Russian language dictionaries.
    Linguistic game “The word is a great thing.”

    In the introductory part of the meeting, the participants got acquainted and discussed Aesop’s parable “On Language”. Then the game began between the teams “Zelo” and “Dobro”. Light warm-up questions helped the players focus.

    Then more complex competitions began: “Explainers”, “It’s not without reason that the proverb is said”, etc. In the “Brief and Clear” competition, participants were asked to convey the meaning of an expression in one word.

    At the meeting, the guys heatedly discussed the purity of our language, and eventually came to the conclusion that learning their native language is not only necessary, but also very interesting.

    Conversation-dialogue "Pskov - a warrior city"

    On February 28, in the Library - Center for Communication and Information, a conversation was held with 4th grade students about the defenders of the Russian land "Pskov - a warrior city."

    Your sorrowful greatness
    I bravely undertake to glorify
    Russian borderland -
    Pskov region - military Rus'.
    O. Alekseev

    Our Pskov region in ancient times (as well as today) was a border region, and very often the inhabitants of the Pskov land met a foreign enemy. Russian squads went out to meet the enemy, and the bravest Pskovites led them into battle. They were the subject of a story at the next meeting with fourth-graders.

    The defenders of the land of Pskov are the holy noble princes Vsevolod Gabriel, Dovmont Timofey and Alexander Nevsky. From the distant past, the children saw pictures of the heroic struggle of the Pskovites: the Battle of the Ice, the defense of the city from the troops of the Polish king Stefan Batory, the Swedish king Gustav Adolf.

    Many Pskov residents fought heroically in the Patriotic War of 1812.

    Particular attention in the conversation was paid to the events of the Great Patriotic War and the memorable places of Pskov associated with them. What struck the boys most was the number of victims of fascist terror. They learned that the entire city was entangled in a whole network of concentration camps in which 225 thousand prisoners died. Just think about it! Now our city has about 200 thousand residents!

    But even in our time of peace, there are hot spots where, as in ancient times, the strength, honor and courage of the Pskovites are needed!

    For the valiant exploits of the Pskov people in 2009, Pskov was awarded the title “City of Military Glory.”

    Educational hour "Trace of the Panther"

    On February 25, at the Library-Center for Communication and Information, an educational hour “Trace of the Panther” was held for students in grade 9 of school 4.

    Although the Great Patriotic War ended a long time ago, its echo continues to this day. In our country, the war affected the lives of millions of people. Words by A.V. Suvorov’s message that the war is not considered over until the last of the soldiers who died in it is buried is, unfortunately, still relevant. Many soldiers and officers remained lying on the fields of past battles. Their relatives to this day cannot find out anything about the fate of their “missing” loved ones.

    The military-patriotic public organization “Trace of the Panther” is searching for missing Red Army soldiers in the Pskov region and searching for relatives of found soldiers. One of the organizers of the “Trace of the Panther,” retired lieutenant colonel of the Soviet Army, Georgy Sergeevich Prokaza, told the children about the activities of this organization.

    His story about the rise of a Soviet wartime aircraft in the Novosokolniki district, accompanied by a screening of a documentary film from the archives of the “Trace of the Panther” association, aroused great interest. The guys were also struck by the number of soldiers found and reburied - about eight thousand.

    Literary and musical evening “To remember...”

    On February 20, the Library - Center for Communication and Information in the club “Meetings on Zavelichye” hosted a literary and musical evening “To Remember...”.

    The participants of the evening got acquainted with the works of S. Aleksievich, poems and songs of Afghan soldiers. All military veterans were congratulated by the young guitarists of the Nadezhda children's center.

    The congratulations of the deputy of the Pskov regional assembly O.M. Bryachak were unexpected and pleasant. Tea drinking continued the evening: they sang war songs, read poems about military everyday life, danced and, of course, drank tea.

    “The holiday dedicated to the defenders of the Fatherland was moved to tears and solemnly. It is gratifying that young people took part in the preparations. They left spiritually enriched, in a good mood” - from the review of the widow of the Pskov artist, participant in the Battle of Stalingrad V. S. Silina.

    For Defender of the Fatherland Day

    Little library readers were the first to congratulate their fathers and grandfathers.
    Young artists from the “Kalyaka-Malyaka” circle presented their first exhibition-a gift of creative works.

    At the presentation, the children read poems dedicated to their beloved fathers, participated in competitions together with their fathers and mothers, and at the end of the meeting received well-deserved awards - certificates and sweet prizes.

    Educational hour “Pskov churches flaunt over the eternal bright water”

    January 31 in the Library - Center for Communication and Information as part of the project “Get to know your native land!” An educational hour passed: “Pskov churches flaunt over the eternal bright water.”

    A virtual tour of Pskov allowed schoolchildren to see and compare the ancient and modern city of Pskov - unusually beautiful and unique.

    Using the example of Pskov churches, the children became acquainted with the features of the stone architecture of ancient Pskov. “No matter what the city is, it’s noisy,” says the ancient Russian proverb. All the temples and fortresses of our city are original and unique. The children were convinced of this by answering questions in the Architectural Mosaic competition.

    Getting acquainted with the churches of Pskov, the children learned that many of them were given names not just by the saint or church holiday to which they are dedicated, but also the names are associated with the surrounding area or a historical event that took place. These names sound like music - the Dormition from Zhabya Lavica, Nikola So Usokha, the Church of Kozma and Damian from Primostie, the Church of St. Basil the Great on Gorka, the Church of the Intercession and Nativity of the Virgin Mary from Prolom, the Church of St. Barlaam of Khutyn...

    For the event, the children prepared creative works - drawings of temples, churches, monasteries of Pskov and short stories about them.


    The best works accompanied the librarian's story about the churches of Pskov.

    Summing up the results of the creative competition "Talisman of the Year"

    On January 13, a celebration was held in the Library - Center for Communication and Information in honor of summing up the results of the creative competition “Talisman of the Year”.

    According to the eastern horoscope, 2013 is the Year of the Snake. This wise Snake became the hostess of our holiday. And a variety of snakes, snakes and snakes helped her.

    The first to imagine themselves were snakes from popular science books and encyclopedias. The children learned about harmful and beneficial snakes, and that since ancient times, for many peoples, the snake has served as a symbol of power, wisdom and might. There is a Snake Temple on the island of Penang in Malaysia. It is still inexplicable that on certain holidays according to the Chinese calendar an unprecedented number of snakes crawl into the temple, and that during all this time not a single visitor to the temple was bitten. It was interesting to find out that the longest snake in the world is a python named Fluffy from the zoo in Ohio: at 18 years old, he weighs 136 kg, his body length is 7 m 31 cm, this snake is listed in the Guinness Book of Records. The oldest snake in the world, a boa constrictor named Popeye, lived 40 years, 3 months and 14 days.

    Next there was a parade - a presentation of literary snakes. The parade was attended by the heroes of the books by V. Blagov “Freedom for the Serpent Gorynych”, R. Kipling “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi”, “Mowgli”, P. Bazhov “Blue Snake”, Brothers Grimm “White Snake”, G. Oster, K .Doyle “The Speckled Ribbon, etc.

    As part of the competition, children participating in the festival presented poems about snakes of their own composition.

    With great pleasure, all the guests of the holiday took part in the competition of snake fashion designers, tongue twisters “All about her”, and answered questions in the literary quiz “Who is this? From which book,” they solved charades and made up words from the letters and syllables they found.

    The holiday ended with summing up the results of the “Talisman of the Year” competition. The competition jury determined the winners in the following categories: “Drawing”, “Craft”, “Literary work” in different age categories.
    All winners received letters of gratitude and gifts. Help in purchasing gifts was provided by Deputy of the Pskov City Duma Natalya Viktorovna Sokolova.
