Bishkek, June 3, 2026 /Kabar/. Tolegen Amatov, director of the Okuu Kitebi publishing house, spoke about plans to digitalize school textbooks.

According to him, work is currently underway to add audiobooks and QR codes, which will be interactive.
"In the future, the publishing house dreams of making electronic textbooks not just in PDF format, but fully interactive—in 3D, with the ability to take tests. For now, we need to prepare the basic content, and then we'll digitize it," Amatov noted.
He emphasized that some of this work has already been implemented: QR codes are included in the new textbooks. For example, in English textbook, students can hover over the QR code to listen to a pre-written dialogue in English.
