History of establishment
31 January 2007, by the Russian President's Order #34-rp On the Establishment of the Library of the President of the Russian Federation, a new national library was formally founded.
Boris Yeltsin Presidential Library was officially opened by President Dmitry Medvedev on 27 May 2009 in St. Petersburg.
The next stage was creating regional centers of the Presidential Library under the roof of regional and republican libraries across Russia, operating as a network with a uniform methodology and software support.
The Regional Center of the Presidential Library was established at the Komi National Library in 2008 with the financial assistance of the government of Komi.
