Activities of museums of the city of Iruktsk in the XIX - early XX centuries (based on materials of periodical press)

Informing the general public about the activities of museums is one of the main tools for effectively attracting visitors. At the turn of the century, in the absence of a clearly developed public relations structure, periodicals played a key role in publicizing various aspects of museum work. For regional museums, such publications, along with the works of researchers and scientists, acted as a means of popularizing the public about their work, museum collections and individual exhibits, as well as existing problems.
