The reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS), creation of the Federal Agency of Scientific Organizations (FANO), a change in legislation, the integration of three academies: Academy of Sciences, the Russian Academy of medical Sciences (RAMS), Russian Academy of agricultural Sciences (RAAS); restructuring of research institutions - served as prerequisites for changing RAS library system and called for the regulation of interaction and relationships between libraries within the system of scientific organizations. In these new conditions, a new concept of library and information support of scientific research is required to identify mechanisms for the uniform distribution and optimal development of libraries under FANO jurisdiction.
