Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev replaced the head of the Russian State Library. Now, instead of Vladimir Gnezdilov, the library is headed by Vadim Duda, head of the Library for Foreign Literature. This was reported on the website of the government.
Duda was appointed head of Leninka for five years. Whether he will continue to work at the Foreign Literature Library is unknown.
Executive director of the RSL Vladimir Gnezdilov, who has worked in the library for almost 20 years, has been acting director general for the last two years.
Earlier, RBC, citing sources , reported that the reason for Gnezdilov's dismissal was "flaws in many issues."
