Tatarstan was one of the first regions to use electronic books

Due to arrangements reached by Tatarstan Ministry of Education and Science, Centre of information technologies, Fedorov publishing house and companies “Kirill and Mefodiy”, and “Rukarta”, all Tatarstan pupils and teachers have access to electronic books for primary school.

In 2014 the access is provided on free basis within the framework of the pilot project. From 2015 Tatarstan Ministry of Education and Science will decide what books will be purchased. In accordance with the order of Russian Ministry of Education and Science №1047, there should be two versions of books – printed and electronic.

Students and teachers can work with books on any computer or device. The access to the system is available using personal login and password given in the system “Electronic education in the Republic of Tatarstan”. Users from 900 Russian and foreign cities currently work with electronic books.

To the point, 900, 000 users work in the system “Electronic education in the Republic of Tatarstan”.
