Bibliopsychology and Noosphere
Relevance of the article is driven by the necessity of using the library science classical heritage to determine the role of books and libraries in the future noosphere. In this aspect, there is analysed the concept of bibliopsychology developed by N.A. Rubakin. The object of bibliopsychology is not a traditional book publishing, but the spiritual sphere of human and humanity in general. Therefore, bibliopsychology is legitimately to be considered a general meta-theory, the object of which is study of general patterns of the semantic communication and creativity. V.I. Vernadsky concept of noosphere develops the definition of noosphere as living environment of man of future (noosphere human), formed by post-industrial civilization and humanistic culture. There is characterized the subject area of noosphere, which includes three directions: philosophical-theological, utilitarian-technocratic, and humanistic. Critical to the formation of humanistic noosphere is forming of a noosphere human - human of a new type. On the grounds of analysis of the basic laws of bibliopsychology and other scientific and methodological generalizations there is made the conclusion on expediency of use of N.A. Rubakin heritage in library-pedagogic activities on forming the noosphere human. It is proposed to transform the outdated bibliopsychology to neocommunicology.
