"Since April, we got involved into the work on the formation of Datalib.ru Digital Library and, with the support of Innopolis University, launched large contests for the creation of textbooks. It is important not only to have educational programs, but also to support them with the educational and methodological base that we are responsible for, as a publisher, as a platform.
