In order to increase the coverage of children with preschool education, educational groups are organized in libraries. We have 1,050 libraries. Such educational groups were organized in nine libraries. In 2019 we plan to arrange such groups in 40 more libraries,” Altynai Omurbekova declared. (24.kg/Business World Magazine)
