The authors examine the key problems inhibiting scientometric studies and scientific communications. These challenges call for significant efforts and professional courage. Firstly, this is the need for open access to scientometric data and improvement of their quality and comprehensiveness, including author data, affiliations, citations and meta information. The authors emphasize the necessity for large-scale introduction of technologies for identifying objects of science information (i. e. publications, researchers, organizations, projects, etc.), which would enable to decrease significantly the number of bibliographic mistakes.When projecting scientometric studies, the edge of objects and analysis instruments have to be defined by the goals rather than by bibliometric database limitations. Indexing of scientific publications is among the key instruments. Its advancement is determined by emerging and low-quality classifications of bibliometric databases, their differences, and changing science structure. Finally, the propriety of scientometric methods and results interpretation, in particular that of scientometric performance assessment, have to be controlled. Meeting these challenges will enable to provide efficient monitoring of scientific activity based on operative collection, processing and analysis of scientific information flows rather than on annual statistical surveys. This transfer would improve monitoring significantly and expand the spectrum of solutions; it would also enable to reveal system changes in research, to respond to disparities in development, and to make the solutions in science management more efficient.

The author reviews the results of the survey of the researchers of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SB RAS), responses to The State of Open Data survey of researchers in 192 countries (2016–2022), and interviews of the librarians of SB RAS scientific organizations on their attitude to open science and its information support. The study was accomplished within the research project of SB RAS State Public Scientific and Technological Library “Development of the functional model of scientific library in the open science information ecosystem”. The author demonstrates that the researchers have been increasingly publishing their results in the open science (OS) journals, though still are unaware of OS types, doubt OS publications quality, and beware data exchange. The scientists are positive about open science and an open data (OD) system, OD and open-source software, open cooperation between researchers, as well as open peer reviewing. The study also proves that the librarians have been providing traditional services, not very eager about open science support services, doubt their necessity and relevance. The author argues that the librarians have to reconsider their attitude toward open science support, to explore new resources, to expand their competences, and to build the system of integrated information support of scientific research, which makes the libraries active actors in advancing open science practices.

The authors introduce the findings of their research on updating and improving the existing master version of the State Rubricator of Sci-tech Information (GRNTI) version 2021 and building the General Classification Schedule of the master GRNTI 2022 version. They define the main functions of GRNTI as the standard classification of the State System of Sci-tech Information. The functional efficiency depends on the compliance of the Rubricator’s subject and structural organization to the current status and trends of scientific knowledge and technologies. The main stages of the accomplished studies are described: comparative intellectual analysis of subject scope and hierarchy of GRNTI classes and thematic description of sections within the Plan of Fundamental and Thematic Scientific Research for 2021–2030; submitting proposals for GRNTI by researchers of relevant research institutes and STI agencies; analyzing and content editing of GRNTI proposals, eliminating concept duplication, and updating links and references. The authors include the statistics of changes distribution in GRNTI 2021 by types: changed subject headings, new headings introduction, and elimination of the subject headings. Statistical indicators are analyzed to characterize GRNTI subject and structural organization, as well as its thematic classes (2nd and 3rd level headings).

The article is based on the methodology of selecting publications for reviewing proposed earlier (see Scientific and Technical Journal. 2022. No. 11. Р. 56–82). This methodology enables to systematize the process of publication selection with the results cited in the protocol. The “embedded librarianship” concept definition is based on the activity component. Three subject vectors are high-lighted in visualization of the study subject scope, namely, librarians in medical environment, librarians in education, and librarians involved in scientific research. The conventional embedded librarian’s profile is formulated, with the professional functionality described and environment characterized. The specialist’s basic competences are information literacy and client orientation. Being complemented with unique competences, the basic skills enable the embedded librarians to transfer from the status of resource-users agent to that of research group full-fledged participant. The author suggests her adapted translations of the concept names.“Embedded librarianship” has substantial potential within the framework of scientific research information support in the form of reviews, which explains why the reviews are seen as an informative source, in particular for the librarians developing library programs with “embedded” information services. The concept may be used for organizing services in research and academic libraries.
这篇文章是基于之前提出的选择出版物进行评审的方法(见science and technology Journal. 2022)。11。Р。56 - 82)。这种方法能够使出版物选择过程系统化，并在协议中引用结果。“嵌入式图书馆”概念定义是基于活动组件的。在研究对象范围可视化中，重点突出了医学环境下的图书馆员、教育环境下的图书馆员和科研环境下的图书馆员三个主题向量。制定了传统嵌入式图书管理员的概要，描述了其专业功能和环境特征。专家的基本能力是信息素养和客户导向。嵌入式图书馆员的基本技能与独特的能力相辅相成，使他们能够从资源使用者代理人的地位转变为研究小组的正式参与者。作者建议对概念名称进行改编翻译。“嵌入式图书馆”在以评论形式提供科研信息支持的框架内具有巨大的潜力，这就解释了为什么评论被视为一种信息来源，特别是对于开发具有“嵌入式”信息服务的图书馆计划的图书馆员来说。这一概念可用于组织研究和学术图书馆的服务。

The author reviews the history of Russian central sci-tech library in 1918-1919. During this period, the library was called The State Scientific Technical and Economic Library (SSTEL) and was part of the Sci-tech Department of the Supreme Council of National Economy of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic. Further, in 1927-1958, this largest library organization was called The State Scientific Library. It became the foundation to the Russian National Public Library for Science and Technology and State Public Scientific & Technological Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences Siberian Branch.The author analyzes the pool of the government and departmental solutions that laid the basis for the Library; he also describes organization process, and reviews personal contributions of librarians to the initial library organization and collection development. He characterizes the first SSTEL leaders and librarians (M.L. Milshtein, Karl F. Gessel, Nikolay N. Orlov). In particular, he emphasizes the outstanding contribution by Nikolay P. Gorbunov (former assistant to Vladimir Lenin, later an academic).At the initial stages, two well-stocked public libraries were merged into SSTEL, namely the Society for Advancement of Experimental Sciences and Their Practical Applications named by H.S. Ledentsov (and its specialized library building) and Moscow Technical Library of the Polytechnic Society.The author concludes that the efforts of librarians and scholars in the Supreme Council of National Economy made it possible to establish the central national sci-tech library and get it off the ground during the hardest years of the Civil War.
本文回顾了1918-1919年俄罗斯中央科技图书馆的历史。在此期间，该图书馆被称为国家科学技术和经济图书馆(SSTEL)，是俄罗斯苏维埃联邦社会主义共和国国民经济最高委员会科技部的一部分。此外，在1927-1958年，这个最大的图书馆组织被称为国家科学图书馆。它成为俄罗斯国家科学技术公共图书馆和俄罗斯科学院西伯利亚分院国家公共科学技术图书馆的基础。笔者分析了政府部门池化的解决方案，为图书馆的池化奠定了基础;他还描述了组织过程，并回顾了图书馆员对初始图书馆组织和馆藏发展的个人贡献。他描述了SSTEL的第一批领导和图书馆员(M.L. Milshtein, Karl F. Gessel, Nikolay N. Orlov)。他特别强调了尼古拉·p·戈尔布诺夫(Nikolay P. Gorbunov，列宁的前助手，后来成为学者)的杰出贡献。在最初阶段，两个藏书丰富的公共图书馆合并为SSTEL，即由H.S. leentsov命名的实验科学及其实际应用促进协会(及其专门的图书馆大楼)和莫斯科理工学院技术图书馆。作者认为，正是由于国民经济最高委员会图书馆员和学者们的努力，才有可能在南北战争最艰难的岁月里建立起国家中央科技图书馆并使之起步。

The author analyzes the content of the monograph by Yury N. Stolyarov, prominent Russian library scientist and encyclopedist. The monograph “Library collection studies” reveals the ontological status of library collection and covers the history and the key subject scope and practical goals of library collection studies as an individual library discipline. In particular, the “document” scientific and practical category is examined as a fundamental to the library document studies and general documentology. The theory of library collection studies is in the focus of the monograph author who proceeds from the library collection key role and the assumption that any problem in the library studies is related to library collections. He applies special terminology to examine the place of library collection within the “Library” system, library collection attributes and characteristics, general provisions, principles and laws of the library collection theory, as well as information security and library collection system functions. The definition of the “library collection” concept is offered. Library scientists, bibliographers, book scientists, librarians of all types of libraries, faculty members in the system of library and information education, students, post-graduates, and the Russian bibliophilic community will make the readership of the monograph. It may contribute to the theoretical, methodological, and professional core knowledge in every library discipline.

Science today is the key factor of social development and focus of the government policy. The published and globally acknowledged research results reflect the advance of the national science. The author assesses the publication activity of Russian scientists within the context of the goals of the national sci-tech policy. The newness and originality of the study lies in revealing and analyzing of intrinsic and extrinsic factors of publication activity. The author applied the method of comparing bibliometric indicators to characterize the works by Russian scientists in Scopus database. The goals of the study are: 1) to analyze publication activity structure and dynamics; 2) to define publication impact; and 3) to evaluate competitive strength and potential of publication activity of Russian scientists as compared to foreign researchers. Based on the bibliometric indicators, the author reveals heterodromous trends in Russian science. Traditionally, Russian science maintains its positions in the share of publications in leading journals, with the fast developing life sciences increasing the total number of publications; while the multidisciplinary studies make the most promising vector. The author concludes that despite increasing number of publications and their impact, their contribution to the global science continues to be a relevant problem.

Scientific libraries as an essential part of science, education, sociocultural and industrial complex of a region (big academic or industrial city) are engaged in developing information and communication environment. Therefore, systematic developing of library and information space is vital. Within the framework of the project “Regional scientific libraries in the changing science and education environment” (Fundamental Studies Program of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2022–2026), the State Public Scientific and Technical Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences Siberian Branch has been designing the model to adapt regional libraries to modern communications and new methods of scientific publications dissemination within the context of social transformations and changing paradigm of library acquisition of scientific literature and information resources, the services provided to specialists in science and education and meeting their information needs, modified user preferences, behavior and reading styles, and the concept of libraries interaction in building and using their document resources. The authors focus on the science and education space and library and information infrastructure of Novosibirsk (big science and education center) and Western Siberia (Tomsk, Kemerovo Regions and Altay Kray) and, for comparison purposes, that of Chelyabinsk, the large industrial center in the Urals.The authors characterize in brief Chelyabinsk industrial, science and academic specialization and its library system (based on the monitoring findings), as well as the primary results of the study of library users information needs (survey based); they also examine the compliance of document resources of Chelyabinsk Regional Universal Scientific Library to the user information needs to update the conceptual model of library and information services offered to students and specialists.

The normative acts regulating and defining the creation of the unified information space of Russia, including the Strategy for the Development of the Information Society in the Russian Federation for 2017–2030 and the RF Presidential Decree “On the approval of the Foundations of State Policy in the strategic planning in the Russian Federation”, are discussed. The purpose of the study was to analyze the current state of the process of shaping the unified information knowledge space (UIKS) of the agroindustrial complex. To form the unified information space of the industry, it is necessary to develop and adopt regulatory documents at the industry level, unified methodological approaches, software and linguistic tools, data presentation format; to design the scheme of interaction between system participants. There are 216 research institutions (RI) operating in the agricultural industry, i. e. 181 research institutes (SRI), 35 experimental stations and 57 higher educational institutions (HEI). In 2012 by the decision of the Russian Agricultural Academy, the centralized electronic library system was created, the cornerstone of which is the Union Catalog. The joint software, linguistic tools, data presentation format, and methodological foundations also exist. However, the reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences has changed the situation, some research institutes have ceased implementing the decisions of the Russian Agricultural Academy. The formation of the UIKS of the Agro-Industrial Complex requires the relevant regulations approved by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education and the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation and the willingness of the research institutions’ executives.

Digital transformation of document arrays has changed the nature of information infrastructure, as the digital documents are created, distributed, discovered and delivered in principally other way than in the epoch of printed matters as the main information media. The transition to digital information infrastructure has resulted in the loss of role of libraries as an essential intermediate on the document author-to-reader way, reasonably displacing libraries to the periphery of information activities and depreciating the majority of methods and technologies of document array organization developed through the centuries. The author substantiates the rationale for degrading information component of library mission and the necessity to transit to prevalent analytical services. The decreasing role of libraries is determined by the following factors: reduction of overall printed publications; their lower contextual value; capabilities to store, distribute, process digital information array formally and semantically, information deliver to users without the input of librarian. Therefore, not all the manual processing operations have become demanded any more. The print arrays grow scanty quantitively and contextually, and the increasing and dynamical digital flows are processed by ever-improving software. The author sees the solution in expanding analytical function of libraries which envisages inclusion of professional competences related to complex analytical processes, i. e. fact search and verification; acquisition and processing of statistical and experimental research data, preparation of analytical surveys, reviews and reports.
