    ENG: Objective. The purpose of the article is to comprehensively analyze the semantic transformations of the lexeme librarian, the features of its interpretation in both the lexical register and discourse. The study of theoretical material and source base made it possible to build and compare lexical-semantic fields of lexemes librarian / teacher, to show their semantic intersections - a linguistic reflection of the idea of a librarian transformed in the minds of speakers and interpreted under the influence of essential objective / subjective intra- and extralingual factors. Methods. To achieve the defined goal, general scientific and linguistic research methods were applied. First of all, to study and explain the structure, content, and logic of dictionary definitions of the considered concept, the method of semantic analysis of definitions was used. The corpus approach made it possible to trace the frequency and dynamics of the use of lexemes librarian and teacher in discursive content. Semantic-distributive analysis made it possible to analyze the specificity and variation of the contextual compatibility of the considered lexeme, to construct a lexical-semantic field. Results. The results illustrate the emergence of new semiotics, layered and usual, and therefore semantic modifications caused by extralinguistic factors. Conclusions. The results of the study convince that the understanding of the concept of a librarian is shifting from mediation in the “information – reader” paradigm to mentoring, supervision, tutoring, teaching, and active involvement in the organization of the cultural and educational process.
