SLIDE 35
I am the goddess of books, the priestess of book phrases,
And on my forehead is the seal of the gods.
I keep in my heart the wisdom of all ages,
But I appeal to each of you.
How happy is the one who did not see
As vandals burned the book temple,
Alexandria monastery,
The "eighth wonder" of the whole earth.
How happy is the one who saw - again,
By the whole world, people of many countries,
By line, by sheet, by word,
Restored the book temple!
Librarian! Rule the world!
Your work lives soul!
Keep books not in savings banks, -
In the hearts, in the minds, on the shelves!
After all, the book is not valued for nothing,
Source of knowledge, eternal phrases,
As the best, in fact, gift
For humanity - from you!
SLIDE 36
LEADING: There are three main values on earth. This is bread so that the people will always be healthy and strong; A woman, so that the thread of life does not break, and a book, so that the connection of times does not break.
HOST 3: The fate of the book is inseparable from the fate of man. When he is still small, fairy tales appear in the house, he goes to school - textbooks lie on the table. He became interested in technical creativity - books on modeling and design began to appear in his personal library. And all life - and in early age, and in maturity - a person turns to fiction
HOST 4: A huge, irresistibly alluring world rises behind the pages. A world that encourages the work of the mind and heart, a world that does not allow us to forget about the high purpose of the book and about those from whose hands we receive this book.
SLIDE 37
HOST 3: And Indian scholar Sh. Ranganathan said: “ First you need to find a good librarian and only then open the library.”
HOST 4: The library is the memory of all modern civilization. It collects and transmits acquired knowledge in space and time, preserves the unbreakable thread of culture from antiquity to the present day, ensures the continuity of ideas, the accumulation of historical experience. And "the mission of the librarian is to preserve and develop what is called the spirituality of society."
SLIDE 38
LEADING 3 : The work of a librarian: they have been talking about him since the 17th century. At that time, libraries were located in monasteries, and the position of a librarian was limited to book storage.
In the XYII century, the first instructions on the protection of books, on the methods of their use, already appeared: But soon the grand opening of the university library took place, in which there were positions of sub-librarian and teacher librarian. Moreover, only a professor could be appointed to the first position.
HOST 4: The Orleans librarian of the late 19th century, Capiel, addressed his readers in this way: “Come to our vast book depositories ... Know that for many centuries all the best, most useful that mankind has achieved in the knowledge of truth and beauty have been collected there. Do not consider yourself uninvited guests at the feast of the sages. Take the place prepared for you there. And then, eye to eye with the beautiful creations of poets, scientists, historians of all times and peoples, you will correctly assess your abilities, and new, wide, unknown horizons will open to your eyes. Come to libraries, the abode of knowledge."
SLIDE 39
HOST 3: Since time immemorial, librarians have been not just collectors and keepers of the spiritual wealth of society, but connoisseurs of books, helpers of those who used them. An active social function determines the social essence of the librarian's profession. An old treatise says:"... let's give thanks to the one who helped us easily pass through the complex labyrinth of books ...".
HOST 4: A librarian is also a professional amateur of a wide profile, he must have an idea of everything in the world, therefore erudition and once again erudition is one of the qualities of his personality.
HOST 3: And most importantly, a librarian must know and imagine the way to search for the necessary information, know how and where to find an answer to a user's request, know books, magazines, reference publications, i.e. be able to find the source of information.
HOST 4: The working tool of one who is engaged in serving readers is not a pen and a form, but one's own soul. A lot depends on how the librarian meets the reader: both the mood and the desire to come to the library again, and the opinion of all the library workers.
SLIDE 40
HOST 3: The librarian must have the best human qualities, must be friendly, affable, polite, attentive, show participation, tolerance, behave tactfully, correctly, take care of the convenience of the reader.
HOST 4: OThe librarian's image cannot be negative. These are heroines with inner beauty, with the harmony of the soul, with a creative nature, with the gift of a psychologist and teacher, with knowledge of literature; they are characterized by professionalism and authority, intelligence and charm - the qualities that every librarian needs to raise his prestige in the eyes of others.
SLIDE 41
HOST 3: And librarians, in the minds of most people, are sincere, kind, polite, well-read women who preserve book treasures. Of course, all this is said about real librarians, librarians by vocation, professional librarians.
HOST 4: famous Russian painterXXcentury, Nicholas Roerich described our profession as follows: “Every librarian is a friend of both an artist and a scientist. The librarian is the first messenger of beauty and knowledge. After all, it is he who opens the gates and extracts from the dead shelves the sacred word for enlightenment, seeking the spirit. No catalogs, no descriptions will replace the librarian. loving word and an experienced hand produce a true miracle of enlightenment.
HOST 3: In ancient times, librarians were exclusively men.
SLIDE 42

. He was in charge of the manuscript and art departments and was not just a keeper and collector of old books, he was the lord of treasures, which he managed skillfully and creatively.
SLIDE 43
SLIDE 44
And in confirmation of the words of Academician D.S. Likhachev:
“You are the main people in the state, because the education of the country, its culture depends on you. In order for the country not to disappear, it needs, first of all, you, librarians.
SLIDE 45 (music playing)
We enter the silence of libraries, and there
We turn on the light, tint the faces ...
And turn into Beautiful Ladies,
Who are loved by knights and books.
And we illuminate the long-awaited readers with light.
And silently slide between the shelves
In the eternal search for eternal answers.
One will ask for a textbook on logic.
Another mathematical analysis will puzzle us,
The third wants to study pedagogy
Yes, and psychology in addition ...
And one day a student will come in and ask:
Are there any poems by Alexander Blok?
“About the Beautiful Lady? .. - we ask mysteriously, -
Of course, of course, always there!”
For someone - beloved wives and sisters,
For some, we are grandmothers, dear mothers,
For some friends, we just ...
But in the world of books we are Beautiful Ladies!
Open the doors to Spring and let her in
With strong feelings, with the main feelings.
Light up with love and give it!
And stay Beautiful Ladies!

Despite the fact that the profession of a librarian, however, as well as the libraries themselves, is gradually dying out, there are still people in our country who will celebrate their professional holiday on May 27 - Librarian's Day.
history of the holiday
This holiday was established by Boris Nikolayevich Yeltsin back in 1995. According to the text of the decree, new holiday became a worthy response to the contribution of the country's librarians to the development of cultural ties in Russian society. In his decision, the president was guided by another date that happened several centuries ago. On May 27, 1795, the first public library was founded in Russia. The assortment of the new institution was small, but now everyone could read the text. Unless, of course, he could read.
The All-Russian Librarian's Day should be widely celebrated, at least as stated in the recommendation to local governments. It is not worth ignoring this urgent recommendation, in order to avoid possible problems. Therefore, when the day of the librarian comes, a wide variety of events are held: meetings with famous writers, seminars on literature and much more. What the authorities have enough desire and funds.
The very first library
Officially, the first accessible library opened only at the end of the 18th century, however, according to the latest research by historians, the library worked during the time of Yaroslav the Wise, when there were no books at all, not only those who could read. This event is dated 1037.
In the most reading country in the world and the libraries were the best, largest and most beautiful. Huge book depositories, as they were then called in official, bureaucratic language, contained the entire cultural and historical heritage of Russia, and were constantly replenished with new, ideologically correct texts, folded into thick books. First, the Bolsheviks took and robbed the loot, nationalizing all the royal libraries. In favor of the young Soviet state, private, home libraries also departed, the number of books in which totaled more than 500 copies. Everyone in the USSR read (again, if possible), but she loved books most of all faithful friend Lenin - Nadezhda Konstantinovna Krupskaya. She was not just fanatically devoted to books, but literally obsessed with literature.
The book is the source of life
Books in the USSR were treated like shrines, and libraries were turned into temples. People went there in droves and sacrificed their free time, in return taking all necessary information, and received great literary pleasure at the same time.
Nowadays
Today, the number of libraries in Russia is declining, but their number is still incredibly large: 150,000 libraries! A huge figure, which again brings our country into the category of the most reading powers. Library Day is most widely celebrated in Moscow, where the most a large number of so-called temples of literature.
Russian State Library
One of the largest libraries in the world is located in Moscow. But at the moment she can only boast of her size, alas, the interior decoration leaves much to be desired. With the development of the Internet, information on paper is less and less in demand, which means that there are fewer and fewer visitors to libraries. And as a result, funding for libraries is being reduced. The government or private investors are more likely to allocate money to digitize existing copies than to build additional storage that meets the temperature standards suitable for storing books.
Russian National Library
While the average person is spending less and less time visiting libraries, this does not mean that they should be abolished! Knowledge of history is one of the most important factors for avoiding the mistakes of the past, and hence for the future. The National Library of Russia, which is located in St. Petersburg, is one of these treasuries, the first book depository of which was opened in 1795! Important documents from the times of Catherine the Great and Alexander the First are collected here.
Old Believers
It is less and less common to meet people in transport reading paper books and more and more often tablets, smartphones and e-books are used as a carrier of information. A person reading a paper book is nonsense for Moscow, and more and more often such people are called Old Believers. Yes, and it is much more expensive to maintain a large analog home library than to fit the same amount of information on a flash drive.
Librarians will live forever
In this case, we are not talking about a specific person, but about a profession. Only a qualified, intelligent librarian will be able to help you navigate the huge flow of low-quality literature and find real masterpiece. So, if you do not know which of the books to take in the very near future, and the Internet and your friends do not advise anything sensible, sign up in the old fashioned way in one of the nearest libraries and ask for advice.
