A Lagrangian 2-web \((M^{2n},F^ n,G^ n,\omega)\) is a symplectic manifold \(M^{2n}\) with the symplectic form \(\omega\) and two transversal Lagrangian foliations \(F^ n\) and \(G^ n\). A Legendrian 2-web \((M^{2n+1}\), \(F^ n\), \(G^ n\), \(E^{2n})\) is a contact manifold \(M^{2n}\) with a contact distribution \(E^{2n}\) and two Legendrian foliations \(F^ n\) and \(G^ n\) which generates \(E\) at each point. A divergence-free 2-web \((M^{n+k}\), \(F^ n\), \(G^ k\), \(V)\) is a manifold \(M^{n+k}\) endowed with a volume-form \(V\) and two transversal foliations \(F^ n\) and \(G^ k\). A 3-web \((M^{2n},F^ n,G^ n,H^ n)\) is a manifold \(M^{2n}\) with three pairwise transversal foliations \(F^ n\), \(G^ n\) and \(H^ n\). These four kinds of webs are studied in the paper under review. For each of these webs a connection is constructed which is natural with respect to the structure preserving maps.
