26 February 2018

In February 2018, employees of the Tomsk Regional Center of the Presidential Library, acting on the basis of the Pushkin Tomsk Regional Universal Scientific Library, together with colleagues from the Information and Service Center of the Library, conducted a series of outreach events - media talks "State Holidays of Russia". The events are aimed at the civil-patriotic education of the youth. The talks were adapted for schoolchildren of different ages and were held in Tomsk schools. During the meetings the students heard fascinating stories about the origin of the state holidays of our country. A literature review was elaborated for the events, using which people can deepen their knowledge of the proposed topic.

On the Presidential Library portal the region is represented by the collection "Tomsk region: pages of history". The selection includes essays, statistical and cartographic materials, archival documents of the late XIX - early XX century, covering the demographic, geographic, socio-economic, socio-political and other aspects of the history of the Tomsk region. The current Charter of the Tomsk region is also represented.
