The purpose of the article is to reveal the role of the Scientific and Methodological Department of the Na-tional Library named after A. S. Pushkin of the Republic of Tyva in the crea-tion and development of the library network. The author presented the history of the establishment of the Methodological Department and the main stages of the development of scientific and methodological activities of the National Li-brary of the Republic of Tyva, and noted the expansion of its functions in con-nection with socio-economic changes in the country. The urgent tasks of the Department in recent years have become organization, coordination, improve-ment of work, professional development of librarians of the central library of the republic and libraries of the network; the main areas of work – information and consulting, analytical, publishing and educational activities.
