BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 19. The Mirza Fatali Akhundov National Library of Azerbaijan has hosted a presentation of five new editions of international textbooks, translated and published in Azerbaijan in the Azerbaijani language with the assistance of bp, from prestigious global universities, Trend reports.
The event is part of bp's larger educational effort, which aims
to provide local colleges with access to world-class worldwide
educational materials, knowledge, and skills.
Currently, a project is underway to translate five more textbooks,
which will be distributed next year.
Bakhtiyar Aslanbayli, bp's Vice President for the Caspian Region,
Communications, and External Affairs, spoke during the
occasion.
"The five editions we presented today are a valuable addition to the list of 19 advanced international textbooks that we have brought to Azerbaijan (translated and published) so far. These books have been carefully selected and recommended by professors and teachers from local universities," he said.
"In these terms, all the books are really needed, ranking among the most demanded textbooks in Azerbaijan. Given that these textbooks are published by the world's most prominent higher education publishers, offering direct access to these books at our universities is a tremendous benefit to both professors and students. We will attempt to continue this support," Aslanbayli added.
