Abstract
The readership of the Soviet Union was considered to be one of the most massive in the world, which was facilitated by the purposeful policy of the Soviet government in popularizing the printed word: the creation of an extensive library network in the city; propaganda through the mass media of book products; explanation of how to work with book, magazine; holding reader conferences, etc. This example of the popularization of the printed word among the population in the USSR can be relevant at the present time, when a significant part of the Russian population spends less and less of their leisure time reading books, when the skill of a person's work on the scientific text, popular science or artistic content is lost. The involvement of sociological research, periodicals and archival documents allows not only to restore the mechanism of popularization of the book in the Soviet Union, but also to trace how it became possible to instill in a person a culture of reading a wide range of literature from ideological to popular science.
