 The chairman of the archive affairs and documentation management committee K.K. Borash spoke about the employment of archival graduates, the opening of courses to improve their professional qualifications, and the year-by-year increase in demand for archivist-documentary profession. About 15 books published by the OMA of the Republic of Kazakhstan in 3-4 years, including "Bauyrzhan Momyshuly's epistolary legacy", "Asanbai Askarov", "1921-1923 famine" etc. introduced the collections of documents and presented them to the library. Also, a memorandum of cooperation was signed between the OMA of the Republic of Kazakhstan and Al-Farabi Library.
 
 Documents brought by the archive staff within the framework of the state program "Archive-2025", as well as declassified documents marked "secret", "top secret", "not subject to publication" were included in the released collections. We believe that the collections of documents published by the employees of the OMA of the Republic of Kazakhstan are a great contribution to the science of archeography, and these publications are the main data sources for promoting the spiritual heritage of the Kazakh people to future archivists and historians.
