Abstract
The designated transition of libraries to the communicative development paradigm implies the use of concepts of “space”, “library space”, “cultural and information space”. Analysis of interaction and mutual influence of the library environment and humanitarian space in Novosibirsk shows that, according to multiplicity of the city images formed for relatively short period, its library environment developed quite quickly as a multi-level structure borrowing resources, creating a variety of specializations and directions. Libraries have ensured orderliness and structuring of resources, gave solidity and stability to the emerging information space of the megalopolis.
