Gorky Library, Scientific library in Ryazan, Russia.
Gorky Library is a scientific library in Ryazan that houses two distinct sections built at different times. The older wing dates from 1964, while a modern extension was completed in 2011.
The library was founded in 1858 with a small initial collection and received support from Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin, who served as vice-governor at that time. It has since grown into an important regional institution.
The library hosts exhibitions and maintains collections about the region's past. Visitors find spaces here where language learning groups and community members gather together.
The building offers free Wi-Fi, computer stations, and digital services for visitors to use. The collection includes over one million items available through regional lending services.
The facility includes an electronic reading room connected to the Presidential Library of the country. This digital link provides access to specialized resources that are typically reserved for researchers.
