Аннотация: This chapter describes activities of the Scientific Library of the Siberian Federal University (SibFU) on the development and implementation of the project Creation of a Scientific and Educational Geographical Library in SibFU. This project, launched jointly with the Russian Geographical Society, aims to provide users with high-quaПоказать полностьюlity informational and educational resources on the profile and topics of the main directions of development of geographical sciences and popularization of geographical knowledge among the population of the cities and region of Yenisei Siberia. Study of the Arctic is a priority task of the SibFU, and the activity of the SibFU library reflecting this priority is analysed in this chapter. The Arctic plays an important role in creating a new library model within the context of the formation of information resources via the works of SibFU scientists related to the study of Siberia and the Arctic by providing public access to their accumulated knowledge. The basis of this project's collection is the unique documents of S. B. Slevich of the Russian Ecological Academy wherein topics include Arctic Indigenous peoples, ecology of the Far North, industrial development of northern territories, and construction on permafrost. In addition, this chapter identifies ways to further promote the project. For example, a plan of collaboration with the Institute of the North and the Arctic at SibFU is under development to train Indigenous peoples of the Russian Arctic on research activities, as well as publish a digest of scientific information on Arctic research carried out by universities throughout Yenisei Siberia.
