Boris Yeltsin Presidential Library was established by Vladimir Putin and is one of the national Libraries in Russia. It is named after Boris Yeltsin. It is located in St. Petersburg in Russia.[1][2] In November 2014 it announced its intention to start an online encyclopedia, which it dubbed an alternative to Wikipedia.
