History
Manuscripts Depository
The Manuscripts Department was established on 11 March 1805.
The history of the national repository of manuscripts and private papers began with the outstanding collection of the Russian diplomat Pyotr Dubrovsky (1754-1816), which he donated for the benefit of the Fatherland. He amassed the items at the latter part of the 18th century while serving as the secretary and interpreter with the Russian Embassy at Paris. In 1805, Alexander I of Russia accepted the collection as a gift to the state and ordered to establish a special "Manuscript Depository" at the Imperial Public Library.
This was the real foundation of the first in Russia state repository of handwritten landmarks, offering public access to them. The "Manuscript Depository" became the first department of the Imperial Public Library.
