PICULIARITIES OF PRESENTING INFORMATION ON ECOLOGY IN THE NATIONAL BIBLIOGRAPHIC HANDBOOKS OF AZERBAIJAN

Nowadays, the international bibliographic community considers the term “national bibliography” as a type of literature which keeps current and retrospective record of the national bibliography of printed materials and provides information about the society. Analysis of the components of the registration count of the national bibliographical handbooks showed that the manual “Azerbaijani Bibliography” published in the period of independence of the Akhundov National Library in comparison with the same book published in the Soviet period has significantly increased the number of documents on Environmental Science and Ecology, i.e. books and theses published in Azerbaijan.
