A warm welcome was provided by Director Elena Sekach.
The students and students were given a tour, during which they learned about the history of the development and transformation of the Government House, the careful storage of books in the library, and saw rare archival materials, including 15th-century books, books donated to the President of the Republic of Belarus by high-ranking officials from various countries, and a museum room containing wartime artifacts discovered on the grounds of the Government House building.
For the modern youth of the Republic of Belarus, visiting significant state cultural and educational centers is an important step in forming academic and professional literacy. A special place among them is occupied by the State Institution "Presidential Library of the Republic of Belarus." Great attention is paid there to the digitization of collections, which makes the library an important scientific and research center. Library readers have the opportunity to work with primary sources, participate in thematic exhibitions, and educational events.
The leadership of the Belarusian National Technical University, the Center for Ideological Work and Youth Affairs, the Dean of the Faculty of Management and Humanitarian Technologies, the Head of the Department of "Industrial Design and Packaging," and the teaching staff support talented students and contribute to their further development.
For students majoring in technical and humanities fields, a visit to the Presidential Library is a unique educational experience, offering a chance to explore historical documents and the latest information.
During the library visit, a dialogue was held with the institution's director and staff members, during which the following topics were discussed:
Cooperation between the Presidential Library and BNTU facilitates the integration of educational and cultural resources.
Students of the Industrial Design and Packaging Department and students of the gymnasium are planning a long-term collaboration with one of the most important cultural and educational centers of the Republic of Belarus – the Presidential Library.
