Abstract
The current state of national book publishing is also of great concern. The Ukrainian book market is occupied by cheap foreign books. Of the ten books sold in Ukraine, nine were produced in Russia. The "shuttle" business on Russian book production annually launders 80-100 million US dollars from Ukraine. At the same time, the state treasury receives meager funds from the sale of Ukrainian books: about UAH 40 million. For comparison, in Russia the book publishing industry is among the five most profitable and budget-generating, along with, in particular, the oil and gas industry.Although it should be noted that the situation is gradually changing for the better with the introduction of the Law of Ukraine "On State Support of Publishing in Ukraine". There is a positive dynamics of increasing the volume of books and brochures. However, the successes achieved may be reversed if the policy of state protectionism in the publishing industry is not implemented. Positive trends must be made permanent and irreversible, because the book continues to be the best form of existence and preservation of the cultural and spiritual heritage of the nation.
