Among the novelties of the professional literature devoted to the library topics there are two works of particular interest by Irina Balkova, having rich experience in the library area, including leadership positions and teaching activities. The first book is devoted to the history of librarianship, however her new book “Reference Book of Librarian” is devoted to topical issues facing the modern libraries. We decided to talk to the author and put some questions regarding books, future of libraries, future plans and some other topics.
