Abstract

Village reading rooms, being an element of the library system of the 1920s, served as the main political educational institution in the village. The article deals with the functioning of institutions of this type on the territory of the Crimean ASSR. Based on archival sources and publications in the local periodical press, a comprehensive analysis of the activities of the reading rooms network in the region during the designated period (the dynamics of their number, financial situation, material and personnel support, forms of work with the population, etc.) was undertaken. The results presented in the study complement the ideas about the history of librarianship, cultural and national policy in the Crimean ASSR of the 1920s and contribute to better understanding of the history of librarianship in Russia.
