In any school in the world there is a treasured office, the main “filling” of which is not stylish furniture or modern technology, and books. We are, of course, talking about the school library. Both teachers and students turn to the services of a specialist working within its framework - a school librarian - every day. Interestingly, there is a global holiday dedicated to libraries educational institutions. Let's find out more about him!
Information about the holiday
The celebration we are interested in is called International School Library Day. It was first celebrated in 1999. The initiators of the establishment of such a holiday were representatives of UNESCO. The time of the socially significant event is always the same and falls on the fourth Monday of the average autumn month.
The fact that the new date was included in the calendar was announced at the appropriate moment by Blanche Woolles, the man who at that time held the position of president of the ASL (International Association of School Libraries). The official status of the holiday was given 6 years later, in 2005, as announced by Peter Jenko, who replaced the previously mentioned Blanche Woolles as president of the said association.
Two more years have passed, and International School Library Day has turned from a one-time annual event into a month-long event. Employees of “book depositories” in educational institutions talk about this innovation different countries supporting the project, learned from the coordinator festive event- Rick Mulholland. The motto of the first October month of social significance was: “Literacy and learning in your school library.” It is noteworthy that in order to hold a specific holiday, school librarians were not required to follow any strict regulations: it was enough to choose one day in the specified autumn month at their discretion to organize a thematic event. However, many responded to this initiative with remarkable enthusiasm, as a result devoting a week of their time to International School Library Day.
How is it going with holiday date in our country? Russian schools joined the School Library Month relatively recently - only in 2008. It was then that this wonderful, useful action was organized and carried out. Its motto was a wonderful phrase: “The school library is on the agenda.” As part of the national month, most Russian schools held the most various events: exhibitions, competitions, seminars, conferences, presentations and congresses of librarians.
The history of the school library
Such a structural unit of an educational institution as a school library appeared at the end of the 17th century. This happened thanks to the efforts of Muscovites, who repeatedly submitted relevant petitions and petitions to higher authorities.
School libraries were the first to appear in prestigious educational institutions - gymnasiums, colleges and cadet corps. Gradually, this process spread to middle and lower level schools. A little later, this structural unit settled even in parochial schools. The pace of the emergence of school libraries can be judged by the following statistics: in the 30s. the century before last, in gymnasiums alone there were more than 60 libraries, and in parochial schools there were about 30 of them.
In 1860, the authorities carried out a reform that had great importance for the development of school “book depositories”. It consisted of the creation of a so-called public school, in connection with which the formation of a network of student libraries began. The formation of this system took place at the expense of funds coming from the pockets of parents, who paid the state for the education of their children, and thanks to the voluntary donations of a caring population.
At that time, the network of school libraries was managed by three government bodies: the Ministry of State Property, Education and Education, as well as the Synod. By the beginning of the 20th century, the share of school libraries in the total number of all structural units of this type was almost 80%. In the 30s The profession of a school librarian appeared. Its emergence was caused by the need to improve library services.
Surprisingly, the Great Patriotic War failed to put an end to the idea of an extensive network of school libraries once and for all. After its completion, the restoration of the latter occurred in record time. Until 1975, school librarians were only responsible for serving students. But, starting from the announced moment, teachers will also join the students.
After 2 years, school libraries began to be equipped with free textbooks. In addition to the school librarian, new specialists have been added: an inspector of educational collections and a methodologist.
Currently, more than 60 thousand libraries operate within schools and similar educational institutions in Russia.
Tasks and functions
The school library is figuratively called the “brain” of the school. The validity of this informal status is confirmed by the functions performed by the library within the walls of a general education institution.
In total, three main functions can be distinguished:
Information. It consists of providing schoolchildren and their mentors with the opportunity to receive and use at their discretion any information they request.
Cultural. School librarians are required, as part of their work, to organize thematic events from time to time, the purpose of which is to develop students' social awareness and cultural development.
General education. This means contributing to the fulfillment of educational tasks outlined in the school curriculum and present in the concept of the educational institution.
School libraries also have several areas of activity. They must be equipped in such a way that children, their parents and teachers can easily access books and periodicals for reading and familiarization; to computer programs. As for teachers themselves, they should also have the opportunity to use methodological and pedagogical literature. Methodological consultations provided to all of the listed categories of citizens are also included in the list of services provided by school libraries and their employees. In addition, the activities of school libraries are aimed at preserving, replenishing and protecting the book collection.
What challenges do school libraries face? Instilling in students a love of books, healthy image life, the reading process, meeting the needs of information teachers, carrying out ideological and educational work. At the same time, school librarians must use new computer technologies in their activities and maintain electronic catalogs in order to make their work easier and the access to library services for those visiting it.

Children express their opinion.
Teacher: Well done guys, what do you think will be discussed at our event today?
Children guess.
Teacher: Absolutely right! Today we will talk about libraries. October 24 is International School Library Day, held annually on the fourth Monday of October. This holiday has been celebrated in many countries for many years, since 1999.
For the first time, the President of the International Association of School Librarianship (IASL), Blanche Woolles, proclaimed this holiday. Only by 2005, Peter Jenko, the new president of this organization, confirmed the official status of the holiday. Since 2008, International School Library Day began to transform into a month, held under different mottos.
In our country, International School Library Month was first held in 2008.

It should be noted that, along with International Day and School Libraries Month, a professional holiday is also celebrated in the spring. All-Russian Library Day, which falls on May 27.
Teacher: Guys, do you like going to libraries? Why?
The children answer.
Teacher: The school library has always occupied a special place in the educational sphere. There were libraries in every educational institution: in theological schools, gymnasiums, lyceums, etc. Domestic teachers have always considered the library as the most important integral link in the educational process; they talked about the enormous influence of the content of library resources on the quality of student learning.
The school library develops within a specific educational institution and plans its work based on the goals that were set for the school’s teaching staff. It is worth noting that the school library becomes the first in a child’s life.
So, guys, now we will find out whether you go to libraries, how much you read, and how many interesting things you know. I suggest you divide into two teams, come up with a name and motto.
Children: The first team is “Librarians”, our motto is: “The library is our home, and we feel great in it.”
The second team is “Readers”, our motto is “We read everywhere, because knowledge is like an emerald.”
Stage 1
Teacher: So, let's begin the first stage of our event. Attention, "Quiz"!!!

A set of events in a work of fiction that are presented in a certain connection (Plot).
In his youth, this writer took part in the defense of Sevastopol, after which he wrote the series “Sevastopol Stories” (Tolstoy).
When do you think the first library appeared? (The first Biblesothecae discovered by archaeologists belong toIVcentury BC. During excavations of the ancient state of Assyria, a huge palace was found, where clay tablets with tests were placed in boxes).
An oral story based on a miracle, a fantastic image or performance perceived as reliable (Legend).
This great poet and playwright never wanted his plays to be recorded and published, he believed that his plays should only be performed on stage (Shakespeare).
Transferring the name of one object or phenomenon to another object or phenomenon by similarity (Metaphor).
Teacher: Well done guys, according to the results of the first competition, the “Librarians” team wins.
Stage 2
Teacher: the next stage is called “Young Poet”. Each command is given a list of words from which you must create your own poem.
List of words for the first command: literature, desire, physical education, message, love, serve, joy.
List of words for the second command: write, poet, educate, advice, book, move, world.
Children complete the task.
Teacher: Well done boys! To summarize, the “Librarians” team is still in the lead.
Stage 3
Teacher: For the next competition, called “I am a camera,” team captains are invited. This competition will help us find out how attentive our “Librarians” and “Readers” are, and how well developed their memory is, because this is so important.
On the board (for each student separately) there are portraits of famous writers and poets (indicating their last names). Your task is to remember all the portraits within 30 seconds, after that, one image is deleted, and each of the captains must voice who was depicted in the disappeared portrait.
Let's sum it up... The Readers team wins.
Stage 4
Teacher: Today a letter was received from an unknown writer. But, unfortunately, the contents of the letter are unclear, since it consists of a chaotic set of letters, and you guys have to figure out which words are encrypted. Letter to the first team:
