Exhibition
EXHIBITION DEDICATED TO RUSSIAN-ARMENIAN FRIENDSHIP AT PUBLIC NATIONAL LIBRARY
RA Public Library held an arrangement dedicated to the Russian-Armenian
literary and cultural relations within the framework of the
arrangements of Russia's Year in Armenia on August 16. The library
exhibited numerous publications, translations, articles on the
literature, theatre and music of both countries that testify to the
enduring friendly relations between the two nations. Rafik Ghazarian,
deputy head of the library, said that the exhibits are mainly of
informational character.
It's noteworthy that 70% of the public library stock is Russian
publications. Mr. Ghazarian explained this by the fact that 50.000
books are being published in Russia every year and the library always
receives copies of new publications. As for Armenia, only 1000
books are being published yearly. During the Soviet times Armenia
also provided Russia with new publications, but now they send only
Russian language publications to the libraries of RF or books in
Armenian for the Armenian community of our neighboring country.
