Introduction

At the beginning of the century, Russia was one of the largest book publishing countries in the world. In 1913, on its territory (within the borders former USSR) more than 30 thousand titles of books and brochures were published with a total circulation of about 100 million copies. In terms of quantitative indicators, Russian book publishing was second only to Germany and significantly outstripped such countries as England, France and the United States. However, the developed book industry was in the tight grip of autocratic censorship, hand and foot entangled and the literary process, and publishing, and printing production. The Main Directorate for Press Affairs within the Ministry of the Interior of Tsarist Russia and its subordinate institutions in the field, " obsessed,- as contemporaries wrote, - one desire - to stifle any free thought and is only occupied with ensuring that there is as little as possible the printed word in Russia, leaving in complete disregard other functions that had nothing to do with censorship, but which cannot but be recognized as of great national importance ". These also included the registration of printed works, which, if the case was properly set up, should have given a picture of the cultural state of the country.

That is why one of the first acts of the Provisional Government, prompted by the demands of the democratic public immediately after the February Revolution of 1917, was the abolition of the Main Directorate for Press Affairs. The Special Commission created on this occasion, chaired by the Commissioner of the Provisional Government, Count D.P. Kapnist, prepared a note stating that the abolition of the Main Directorate did not raise any doubts, "heavy guardianship imposed by the overthrown regime on the Russian public life, was the most sensitive and intolerant in its manifestations in relation to human thought and the spiritual creativity of the people" .

The commission stated that in this area the struggle of tsarism against the public reached extreme tension, and the activities of the organization that led all censorship institutions aroused the most acute and undisguised hatred.

In accordance with the proposals of the Kapnist Commission, on April 27 (May 10), 1917, a decree of the Provisional Government "On Institutions for the Press" was adopted, by which the Main Directorate for Press was abolished, and instead a bibliographic institution of a completely different kind was created, which was called "Book Ward".

1.History of the Russian Book Chamber

The Russian Order of the Badge of Honor Book Chamber is the national center for state bibliography, statistical accounting and international numbering of publishing products, standardization and scientific research in the field of book business, the national depository of legal copies of all printed publications published in Russian Federation. The Russian Book Chamber was founded in 1917. The Chamber carries out state registration of all types and types of domestic publications, distributes legal copies among the country's largest libraries, almost completely providing them with free acquisition of domestic publishing products.

The variety of publishing products of our country is reflected in the state bibliographic indexes regularly issued by the Chamber (“Book chronicle”, “Chronicle of abstracts of dissertations”, “Cartographic chronicle”, “Chronicle of reviews”, “Chronicle of art publications”, “Music chronicle”, “Chronicle of journal articles” , "Chronicle of newspaper articles"), statistical yearbooks and other information publications. The Chamber also forms electronic data banks.

The Chamber has been and is one of the main guarantors of the preservation of the book memory of the nation, because - unlike libraries, which usually have a certain acquisition profile - it collects all published printed materials. The depository of the Chamber is designed for eternal storage and exhaustive completeness of incoming publishing products in the form of legal copies of books, brochures, magazines, newspapers, posters, posters, abstracts of dissertations, postcards, etc., etc. The press archive has more than 82 million items, which is almost twice as much as the largest Russian libraries. He acts as a kind of insurance library fund and a repository of unsolicited literature.

The Book Chamber contributes to maintaining and raising the level of book culture by developing and implementing various national publishing design standards, conducting scientific research (including forecasting) of the book market, reading problems, and the place of books in society. Many of her proposals and recommendations have already been put into practice or accepted for execution within the framework of Moscow and federal programs to support book publishing and reading.

2. The main functions of the activities of the RCP

As a national center of state bibliography, the RCP performs such important functions as:

· bibliographic registration, accounting of all types of printed works published in the country and for all branches of knowledge, and other replicated products (audio and video materials, disks, etc.);

· release of the State Budgetary Institution of Ukraine system and the information bulletin "New Books of Russia"; acquisition of library collections (based on the legal deposit system);

· centralized cataloging (issue of printed bibliographic cards for catalogs and file cabinets of various libraries);

retrospective accounting of printed materials; development of standards and other normative documents; print statistics; storage and use, as well as restoration of the lost parts of the National Depository (State Archive of the Press);

maintaining a reference and bibliographic apparatus; reference and bibliographic services for organizations and institutions, libraries on issues related to the industry (printing, book business), problems of state bibliography, etc.

Traditionally, the RCP performs the functions of the largest research institution and the organizational and methodological center of the industry. Being a research institute by status, the RCP is engaged in the study of general problems of bibliology (for example, the collection "Book. Research and Materials" has been published for years). Being an organizational and methodological center for the book chambers of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the RCP pays much attention to the unification of methodological decisions on bibliographic selection, compilation of materials reflected in the State Budgetary Institution, their classification, equipping republican State Budgetary Institutions with auxiliary indexes, etc.

These functions are performed by the relevant divisions of the RCP. For example, along with departments of the RCP as a national bibliographic center, it also has a Center for Information and Publishing Technologies (CIIT), which, together with the Liberea publishing house, publishes the catalog “Books in stock and printing” (RussianBooksinprint), the editors of the Bibliography magazine, the publishing house Book Chamber International, Book Institute and others.

At the same time, the RCP also has new functions due to the peculiarities of the current stage of development of the state bibliography - the active development of network technologies, the completion of the project "Current National Bibliography - on the Internet" (implemented jointly with the RSL and the NLR with the support of the Open Society Institute); retroconversion programs for catalogs and the State Budgetary Institution (since 1917); modernization and updating of information retrieval languages, subject and classification schemes, communication formats (in accordance with the requirements and specifics of industries, as well as taking into account international standards); continuation of work on creating a database of authoritative (normative) files; conducting fundamental scientific and applied research in the field of book business and information technology; implementation of the project "Electronic resources of the RCP"; improvement of the national information system "Books in stock and printing"; implementation of a project to create a RCP website on the Internet.

Conclusion

State bibliographic indexes occupy one of the main places in the system of scientific and technical information. Almost any type of publication that appeared in our country is reflected in one chronicle or another. They are not only reliable sources of bibliographic information, but also serve as the basis for the creation of other types of bibliographic aids (scientific auxiliary, advisory), for the bibliographic work of libraries.

Indexes of the federal and regional levels differ in the principles of selection of reflected works of print - by place of publication and language. Bibliographic descriptions of printed works that were published in the languages of the peoples of Russia (except Russian) and are reflected in the indexes of the Russian Communist Party are given in Russian. In regional editions, bibliographic records are given in two languages: in the original language and in Russian. Thus, the state bibliographic indexes of the regional book chambers help readers to better navigate the printed works published in the region, supplementing the bibliographic indexes of the RCP.

When searching for information on chronicles, the following should be taken into account: the work of printing is reflected in them separately, by type; for bibliographic aids, a unified classification scheme for printed works has been adopted; auxiliary indexes in most cases are built according to the alphabetical principle and help to find printed works of a certain type in the aspect of interest to the reader with the least amount of time.

The efficiency and economy of many processes of press statistics, book publishing and book distribution depend on the state of the state bibliography. That is why the Russian Book Chamber is constantly improving the scientific, methodological and organizational support of the state bibliography.

Recall, according to the decree "On some measures to improve the efficiency of the state media", the federal state budgetary institution of science "Russian Book Chamber" is liquidated with "the subsequent transfer of the property assigned to it on the right of operational management to economic management" ITAR-TASS.

The presidential decree on measures to improve the efficiency of state media also provides for the liquidation of RIA Novosti and the creation of the Rossiya Segodnya agency on its basis.

The directorate of the RCP states that the decision to liquidate "was a complete surprise for the entire team" and "was not discussed or agreed with us beforehand." The statement also notes that there were no claims against the RCP regarding the performance of statutory functions.

“The liquidation of the Chamber, that is, the destruction or transfer of its functions “into the wrong hands,” can lead to unpredictable consequences for the domestic book business,” the directorate of the RCP believes.

“RKP is the scientific and information center of the Russian book business. The main statutory functions of the Chamber are the state bibliography and press statistics, the eternal (archival) storage of the “book memory” of the nation and the replenishment of the holdings of the country's leading libraries (due to legal copies received in the legally established quantity), the publication of state bibliographic indexes and a scientific and methodological journal, development and revision of state standards in the field of book business, instructive and methodological assistance to library and bibliographic institutions, publishing and bookselling structures. Also, the Chamber is a national agency of ISBN (international standard book number - the main identifier of a printed publication), conducts scientific and scientific information work, ”the leadership of the chamber reports.

“In connection with the foregoing, we hope that a reasonable decision will be made to preserve the Chamber and its staff for the further performance of its functions (in many respects unique for world practice), even within the framework of a new organizational structure,” the statement says.

The Directorate of the Russian Communist Party emphasizes that until the official deadline for reorganization, the Russian Book Chamber retains - in full and without changes - current order and the mechanism for fulfilling its statutory functions.

The chief librarian of the Central City Children's Library named after A.P. Gaidar, Tatyana Rudishina, told Business FM that, most likely, this was a mistake. She hopes that the decision will be canceled: “It's a whole classification system for science. And ITAR-TASS is the media. The museum and the library also have a lot in common. But at the same time, each has its own functions. The Book Chamber is an established institution with many functions. Every day there are books, every day there is a count of these books.

Maria Poryadina, senior researcher at the Russian Book Chamber, noted in an interview with the publication that the role of the RCP is spelled out in the legislation, and in order to change something, the law needs to be changed.

Story

The project for the creation of the RCP was proposed at the beginning of the 20th century by members of the Russian Bibliological Society.

Allocation of state investments in 2009 as part of the implementation of the activities of the Federal Target Program "Culture of Russia (2006-2011)" allowed the RCP to begin work on the digitization of the funds of the National Book Depository.

In 2012, the Russian Book Chamber celebrated its 95th anniversary. The leaders of the book chambers of Belarus and Kazakhstan arrived at the festive events.

In February 2013, by order of the head of Rospechat, M. V. Seslavinsky, a new general director was appointed in the Russian Book Chamber, he became Elena Borisovna Nogina.

Transformation into a TASS branch

The RCP was liquidated without any prior discussion and informing the scientific community on December 9, 2013 by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 894 with the transfer of its property to the ITAR-TASS agency.

As noted in an interview in connection with this event, the Russian publisher, editor-in-chief of the scientific and publishing center "Ladomir" Yuri Mikhailov:

… A living culture is of the least interest to our authorities, because this culture does not determine the place of power in terms of the requests it responds to. They do not need culture as a support in making any decisions and in their popularization, preserving themselves in the political space. Culture, in this sense, does not play any role.
... The problem of the Book Chamber is that, in fact, it was given the place that is assigned to culture today.

Some authors also note that the current situation is remarkably reminiscent of the plot of Ray Bradbury's brilliant science fiction dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451, published exactly 60 years ago - in 1953.

There is no official version of the presidential decision, which came as a surprise to everyone, except for “increasing the efficiency of activities”. There are suggestions about the interest of a number of structures in the expensive real estate of the RCP, which is located in the very center of Moscow (for example, a mansion on the Kremlin embankment, 1). It is also known that the issuance of international standard book numbers (ISBN) is carried out by the chamber on a reimbursable basis - about 1200 rubles for one such number. Given the significant volume of printed matter published in Russia (0.7-1.2 million publications are processed annually in the Russian Book Chamber), the material side of the activities of the liquidated organization is of quite definite interest.

Tasks

The main tasks of the RCP were:

registration and statistical accounting of printed materials in Russia;
research for practical activities on the creation of a state bibliography, as well as ensuring uniform approaches to this process in libraries and publishing organizations;
replenishment of the State Archive of the Press of Russia;
replenishment of the repositories of the largest libraries in the country on the basis of a mandatory copy at the expense of the publisher;
maintenance of state bibliographic indexes;
publication of the journal "Bibliography" and books of the series "Research and Materials";
assigning ISBN numbers to publishing houses and publications (since RCP is the national ISBN agency in Russia);
permission to assign UDC and LBC classifiers to books.
development and operation of the data bank of the state bibliography;
creation and support of the information system "Books in stock and printing".

Structure

The structure of the RCP, in addition to the management, personnel department, accounting department and economic department, included the following research (R&D) and specialized departments:

Research Institute of State Bibliography and Book Science;
R&D of GBI training on non-periodicals;
R&D of bibliographic databases;
R&D of the development of information technologies in the book trade and control over the receipt of legal deposit of books and brochures;
reception department;
Department of Reference Services and Information and Bibliographic Resources of the RCP;
department of analytical processing of serial publications;
department for coordinating the passage of the PC and controlling the document flow;
current storage department;
department of the national book depository;
sector of the international standard book numbering.

Number of employees

As of April 2017, the Russian Book Chamber (a branch of ITAR-TASS) employed 215 people.

Activity

The constantly updated General Alphabetical Catalog containing more than 30 million bibliographic records about printed works published in Russia since 1917 is used as a reference and search apparatus. An electronic catalog of bibliographic descriptions of publications of 1917-2005 with more than 1.8 million entries is available on the RCP website.

The RCP is entrusted with the obligation to receive at the expense of publishers and distribute among the main fund holders (the list of which is approved by law, for example, now a copy of each publication received by the RCP must be in the RSL in Moscow and in the National Library of Russia in St. Petersburg) in the prescribed amount obligatory free copies of publications and other documents. One set, after registration, bibliographic and statistical processing, is sent for eternal storage to the State Press Archive of the Russian Federation, which is part of the Russian Communist Party and represents the most complete collection of printed works that have been issued in the country since 1917. As of 1970, it contained 34 million items; for 2001 - over 80 million.

Editions (state bibliographic indexes)

Among the main bibliographic indexes of the RCP (the so-called annals), covering almost all types of publications, are those issued weekly “
