Library of the Auditorium of Military Affairs in 1918—1921: History and Development of the Holding

The solution of urgent tasks to develop modern approaches to the organization of military libraries functioning is impossible without using the existing achievements in the field of military librarianship. Retrospective analysis of the work of the Information Historical and Scientific Center — Military Historical Library of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (IHSC — MHL GS AF RF) in the Soviet period can be used to improve the work of Russian military libraries at the present stage.Due to the lack of comprehensive studies on the history of the IHSC — MHL GS AF RF in the first years of Soviet power, this article attempts to fill this gap, in particular, to establish the sources of formation of the collection of the library, which changed its name. The aim of the study is to reconstruct the history of creation and formation of one of such sources — the library of the Auditorium of Military Affairs (later — the Department of Universal Military Training at the headquarters of the Petrograd District Commissariat for Military Affairs) in the context of the construction of the Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army (WPRA) in 1918—1921, as well as to analyze the dynamics of the library holding.The relevance of the issue under study is conditioned, on the one hand, by its insufficient research, and on the other hand, by the demand for the historical experience of military libraries to develop principled approaches to their reform. The source base of the research is represented by the materials of Russian archives (the Russian State Military Archive, the Central State Archive of Literature and Art of St. Petersburg, the Current Archive of the IHSC — MHL GS AF RF), documents of the main and central bodies of military administration of the RSFSR, publications in the periodical press.The research has broadened the understanding of the fate of military book collections of the Russian Empire after its collapse and the initial stage of formation of military librarianship in Soviet Russia. The fate of some nationalized book collections before they were added to the holding of the library of the Auditorium of Military Affairs has been established. The documents revealing the main directions of the library’s activity have been introduced into scientific turnover; its organizational and staff structure has been analyzed; the interrelation of the library’s history with the history of the Red Army in the first years of Soviet power has been traced. The results obtained show that the impressive book collection accumulated by the library of the Auditorium of Military Affairs is now a part of the holding of the IHSC — MHL GS AF RF.

Personal Libraries in Russia: Research Results

The study of personal libraries is important for understanding socio-cultural processes that cannot be assessed by examining other historical events, phenomena and facts. The article deals with the monograph by O.N. Ilyina “Personal Libraries in Russia: Terminology and Historiography” (St. Petersburg, 2022), published in the series “The Book in Russia in the 19th — early 20th Century” by the Russian National Library and the winner of the All-Russian competition of scientific works on library science, bibliography and book studies in the nomination “The best scientific work in the field of library science” in 2023. The structure of the historical and book studies edition, the content of the chapters and the peculiarities of the author’s approach to the coverage of historiography, as well as the stages of the formation of terminology for the study of personal libraries in the domestic humanitarian knowledge in the second half of the 18th — early 21st century are characterized. The emphasis is made on the artificiality of the division of periods in the study of personal libraries in 1917, noted by O.N. Ilyina, because up to the end of the 1920s, book historians, whose professional career began before the October events of 1917, continued to carry out active research activities. This idea is confirmed by contemporary works devoted to the life and work of book historians and bibliographers born in the second half of the 19th century. Special attention is paid to the terminology for describing the history of book collections as a whole (and the collections within them), as well as book marks and marginalia in individual copies. A number of remarks on the design of the reference apparatus of the edition and the rubrication of the text are made, which, however, do not prevent interested readers. The quality, relevance and scientific novelty of the monograph are noted.

Microbial Assessment in A Rare Norwegian Book Collection: A One Health Approach to Cultural Heritage.

Microbial contamination poses a threat to both the preservation of library and archival collections and the health of staff and users. This study investigated the microbial communities and potential health risks associated with the UNESCO-classified Norwegian Sea Trade Archive (NST Archive) collection exhibiting visible microbial colonization and staff health concerns. Dust samples from book surfaces and the storage environment were analysed using culturing methods, qPCR, Next Generation Sequencing, and mycotoxin, cytotoxicity, and azole resistance assays. Penicillium sp., Aspergillus sp., and Cladosporium sp. were the most common fungi identified, with some potentially toxic species like Stachybotrys sp., Toxicladosporium sp., and Aspergillus section Fumigati. Fungal resistance to azoles was not detected. Only one mycotoxin, sterigmatocystin, was found in a heavily contaminated book. Dust extracts from books exhibited moderate to high cytotoxicity on human lung cells, suggesting a potential respiratory risk. The collection had higher contamination levels compared to the storage environment, likely due to improved storage conditions. Even though overall low contamination levels were obtained, these might be underestimated due to the presence of salt (from cod preservation) that could have interfered with the analyses. This study underlines the importance of monitoring microbial communities and implementing proper storage measures to safeguard cultural heritage and staff well-being.

Implementasi Etika Profesi dalam Kehidupan Mahasiswa Sastra Inggris Universitas Bumigora

The role of ethics in the lives of students is very important. It equips them with the ability to distinguish between what is right and what is wrong, thus enabling them to behave in a polite, courteous and responsible manner. Violations or deviant behaviour committed by prospective lecturers need to be observed, especially those related to professional ethics. Therefore, there is a need to conduct research on the application of professional ethics early in the lives of English Literature students who aspire to become lecturers. This research will use a literature review approach, involving a collection of books, academic articles and other relevant sources that explore the application of professional ethics in the lives of students. The data collected will be analysed descriptively. The findings of this study highlight the need for continuous effort in the application of professional ethics.

The Role of External Signs of Multi-volume Editions in the Reconstruction of Kolyvan-Voskresensky Mining Plants Book Collection

The purpose of the article is to determinate the role of the external signs in the multi-volume editions in the book marking and to solve the practical problems of reconstruction of the original composition of the book collection of Kolyvan-Voskresensky mining plants (KVMP) for the period of the XVIIIth – early XIXth centuries. This topic is considered in continuation of such issues as the reconstruction of KVMP book collection, which has already attracted the attention of our predecessors, such as formation of the fund, its cataloguing, redistribution among official Altai libraries and others. For the first time one speaks not on mechanical fixation of certain features of the copies, but on the study of these characteristics “interaction mechanisms” under the conditions of redistribution of preserved copies among different Siberian repositories. The focus is only on the signs of the early period of the existence of the book collection: stamp imprints, textual and numerical service records, specific features of bindings etc. The emphasis on early signs is due to an appeal to the earliest accounting document – “Inventory of books of Barnaul State Library, compiled by P. K. Frolov” (1809). This makes it possible to show in detail the connection between the signs on the books and the articles corresponding to these books official document and to determine the original composition of different multi-volume editions or, on the contrary avoid combining volumes that do not correspond to each other into one set. The structure of the article is determined by analysis of numerous details associated with each copy from three state repositories: State Public Scientific Technological Library of the Siberian branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, Novosibirsk State Regional Scientific Library, Research Library of Tomsk State University. The main object of the study is records of “ordinary” and “private” copy numbers, official numerical records, handwritten evidences on the inclusion of numerous drawings in book blocks as an integral part of these editions, different styles of crossing out typographical letters with ferrous ink and other signs. The features of stamp imprints are taken into account. In some cases the paramount importance of the binding characteristics is shown. The role of external signs in combining disparate copies as sets of multi-volume editions is recognized as leading. It is concluded that not just recording, but rather a thorough study of the external features of the extant sets and odd volumes of multi-volume editions is one of the basic conditions for the successful reconstruction of the book collection of KVMP.

Service Quality Analysis of Unej Digital Library Using M-S-QUAL and Importance Performance Analysis Methods

A lot of library services are impacted by the expansion and advancement of information and communication technologies. With this modification, the traditional library services are now entirely digital. To carry out this digitalization, the Unej Digital Library (UnejDigiLib) application was created by the University of Jember's library. The purpose of developing this digital library application was to improve the effectiveness of library services, which were previously hindered by the COVID-19 epidemic. The UnejDigiLib developer has not yet evaluated the quality of its services since the application's release, therefore they are unsure of whether the current services satisfy user needs. Therefore, the goal of this study is to combine Mobile Service Quality (M-S-QUAL) and Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) in order to assess the UnejDigiLib service's quality based on user perceptions. The M-S-QUAL is used to determine service quality indicators and examine the gap between their performance and importance. After that, the service indications are mapped using the IPA based on their priority level. This study used the following six M-S-QUALl dimensions: compensation, privacy fulfillment, content, system availability, efficiency, and privacy. The findings indicate that user expectations have not been met by the UnejDigiLib service's performance. Meanwhile, the IPA analysis's findings indicate that the following indicators are found in quadrant 1: C3 (completeness of the book collection), C5 (suitability of the book collection with the curriculum lectures), C6 (updates to the book collection), and F3 (speed at which books download). This quadrant's indicators are the primary focus for improvement.
