According to the results of a survey among applicants, having unlimited opportunities to search for information on the Internet, a modern student still prefers to go to the library, so it is important to maintain this trend and improve and modernize the temple of the book.
The members of the Academic Council listened to all the reports and discussed them. The joint decisions were documented in the minutes.
