Murmansk Regional Scientific Library hosted a presentation of "Under the Arctic Sky", a new book by legendary regional journalist Vasily Sergeyevich Belousov. The author of more than twenty books about the North, Belousov has compiled a collection of historical essays in this work, chronicling the exploration of Russia’s Arctic and the lives of those who have lived and worked here.
Colleagues, educators, students, librarians, and local officials gathered to congratulate Vasily Sergeyevich on this latest "declaration of love for the North." Among the well-wishers was Denis Moiseev, Chairman of the Murmansk Regional Branch of the Russian Geographical Society and Deputy Director for Science at MMBI RAS, who served as a reviewer for the book and praised it highly.
"Under the Arctic Sky" was published with the support of Murmansk Region Governor Andrey Chibis and the regional government.
