At least in the bigger public libraries of Helsinki metropolitan area there are many books in Persian language. If your local library doesn't have many books in Persian, you can ask the librarian over there if they could order some books from other libraries for you.
You can browse the Persian language books in Helsinki, Espoo and Vantaa public libraries by choosing the advanced search here: http://helmet.fi/search~S9/X and selecting the Persian language from the language menu. If you want to browse all the available Persian books without restricting your search in any other way, you can replace query words by typing only two asterisks ** in the search field.
You may return the library book by mail, the address to Library 10 is:

There is no study about the age distribution of our users, the only knowledge about it relies on a questionnaire we made last year. The people who answered our questionnaire, where
under 18 years 14%
18-35 21%
36-45 12%
46-55 26%
56-65 21%
over 65 6%
This tells off course firstly about who answers questionnaires, but also something about our users. As you can see the age distribution is quite even, whe have people asking questions from every age group.
The is a power-point about the questionnaire, but it is in Finnish. It can be found under this page, which tells about our national meeting day http://www.kirjastot.fi/Page/15c00449-390e-4489-ba31-b9f49ab0e267.aspx , questionnaire slides http://www.kirjastot.fi/File/33c525c4-72ee-4e...st%c3%…

The most famous classic about sociological aspects of suicide is Émile Durkheim's "Suicide: A Study in Sociology", which was originally published in 1897. The book is still relevant and many studies concerning suicide has Durkheim as the starting point.
