Abstract

The article considers the activity of the Belorussian Republic Scientific Agricultural Library (BRSAL) in 1960-s - first half of 1970-s aimed at improving services to the readers, who have no an immediate opportunity to use its library loan and reading-room, through the provision of various forms of non-stationary services: mobile libraries, library branches, service points of literature. The definitions and the essence of such concepts as "branch library", "mobile library", and "library service point" as applied to the historical realities of the 1960s and the first half of the 1970s are revealed. The forms of non-stationary service which were used in BRSAL during the investigated period have been identified on the basis of the documents from the current archive of I.S. Lupinovich Belarus Agricultural Library of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus. The number and location (names) of each form of non-stationary work by year has been established. Statistical indicators of the forms of nonstationary service of BRSAL on readers' record, lending, reference, bibliographic and informational work have been given.
