The article presents the characteristics of bibliotherapy as a field of knowledge that studies the regularities of semantic and emotional perception of texts and develops methods of psychological correction of personality by reading (or listening) specially selected texts from books and other media. The forms and functions of bibliotherapy as one of the modern methods of psychotherapy are defined. The historical stages of the emergence and development of bibliotherapy are analyzed. The publication proves the possibilities of using bibliotherapy for a wide range of psychological problems. Special emphasis is placed on the fact that bibliotherapy is an interdisciplinary field of knowledge that combines the achievements of psychology, library science and pedagogy
