The decision of the Bureau of the Presidium of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus dated July 20, 2022 to consider October 13 as the Day of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus is not accidental. It was on October 13, 1928, as shown by the latest results of scientific research by scientists from the Institute of History and previously unknown archival documentary materials, that the decision of the Central Executive Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the BSSR was adopted on the reorganization of the Institute of Belarusian Culture into the Belarusian Academy of Sciences. And already on October 14, 1928, the resolution of the Central Executive Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the BSSR was published in the central newspapers of Belarus. In December 1928, the Council of People's Commissars of the BSSR approved the Presidium of the Belarusian Academy of Sciences. The Charter of the Belarusian Academy of Sciences and the first composition of its academicians were also approved. On January 1, 1929, on the day of the 10th anniversary of the formation of the Belorussian SSR and the Communist Party of Belarus, the grand opening of the Belorussian Academy of Sciences took place in Minsk.
