Libraries as Resilience Fortresses

Viktor’s presentation will be focused on the role of modern libraries in the changing World of information. Nowadays, security conceptions are increasingly focusing on the question of society’s resilience. Disinformation, fake news, and other phenomena of information warfare are attacking people’s views and beliefs. It is harmful to personal resilience and the overall resilience of the state.
