I would like to seek your kind assistance to give answers for the following matters:

1. Is there any connection between Finnish Communications Regulatory Authority (FICORA) with the library development in Finland?

2. Is there any system/scheme in Finland that do ranking system for public libraries?

Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your question!

1. FICORA and the libraries haven't got any direct connection with each other. FICORA's regulations and licences affect everything in Finland, so they have also affect on libraries. But this is indirect connection. You can read everything about FICORA here:
http://www.ficora.fi/en/index.html

2. We don't have a ranking system for libraries, but we make yearly statistics about libraries' activities. The research and public libraries have their own and separate statistical systems:
