Early 20th century journals include The World of Art and The Golden Fleece.

The Savitsky Collection's library continues to grow as it receives collections from the estates of well-known individuals, such as the ethnographer T.A. Zhkanko and the archaeologist A.V. Gudkova.

Those coming from abroad are charged a nominal entrance fee of 200 soums and should provide notice to the library of their arrival date. Uzbek citizens are given free access to the library.
