The Russian House in Dhaka in cooperation with the Serov Academy of Fine Arts organised an annual cultural event dedicated to All-Russian Library Day.
The All-Russian Day of Libraries has been officially celebrated in Russia on May 27 since 1995. On this day in 1795, Empress Catherine II approved the project of creating the Imperial Public Library (today the National Library of Russia) in St. Petersburg.
Speaking of libraries, the words of V.G. Belinsky involuntarily come to mind: "Multiply your library, not in order to have many books, but in order to enlighten your mind, to educate your heart, to elevate your soul with the creative works of great geniuses."
As part of the event, the Russia Today documentary “Universal Dostoevsky” Russian writer who united the world is a film that talks about how the world treats the work of Fyodor Dostoevsky, and also presents a video report about Moscow libraries.
Library Day has a special meaning not only for people involved in this profession, but also for ordinary readers and connoisseurs of good books.
