There are a large number of books that play with the short mysteries genre sometimes called mini-mysteries, where the reader is asked to solve a mystery. Consequently, without any more detailed information about the specific book you are looking for it is fairly difficult to offer an exact answer. Here are a few possible candidates: "Two-minute Mysteries" by Donald Sobal; "You're the Detective!: Twenty-Four Solve-Them-Yourself Picture Mysteries" by Lawrence Treat; "You Be The Jury" by Marvin Miller; "Almost Perfect Crimes: Mini-Mysteries For You To Solve" by Hy Conrad.
One possible option would be to try online retail book sellers (Amazon.com or Barnes&Noble.com for example) and search for the availablity of the above titles. These…

Public libraries in Finland celebrated their bicentennial in 1994. The founding meeting of the Vaasa Reading Society in the Province of Ostrobothnia on the west coast of Finland took place on the 2nd of August 1794. Although the reading Society was originally meant for its members and partners, other people were also allowed to borrow books for payment. The Reading Society in Vaasa was thus both a "proprietary" and "subscription" library. (Ilkka Mäkinen: Reading Societies in Finland, in Yleiset kirjastot Suomessa. Vaasa 1994, p.104)
The library of the Vaasa Reading Society can be considered to be the beginning of public libraries in Finland. The first public library in Helsinki was founded in 1819, and in Viipuri a public library was…
Building a time machine and time travelling are unsolved scientific problems. Some theories claim that it is possible and some deny.
In Wikipedia there is an article on time travelling http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_travel. In the end of article there are many links to relevant websites.
Here are few books about time machines and time travelling:
Davies, Paul: How to build a time machine. London : Penguin, 2002.
Le Poidevin, Robin: Travels in four dimensions : the enigmas of space and time. Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2003
Gott, J. Richard: Time travel in Einstein’s universe : the physical possibilities of travel through time. London : Phoenix, cop. 2002
The English language originate from the dialects, now called Old English, which were brought to England beginning in the 5th century.

The wireless internet connection service named Stadinetti can be used in every city library in Helsinki. For using Stadinetti, you need a HelMet library card and PIN code. If you don’t have them, you can get them from your local library by showing your identification card (for example your passport or Finnish driving licence).
It’s really hard to say which library would be the best one for you, but all the libraries have certainly space for you and your laptop and a power plug. The nearest one would be Kallio Library (http://www.lib.hel.fi/en-GB/kallio/), street address Viides linja 11 (see http://kartta.hel.fi/opas/indexen.html). Kallio Library is a big library, so there should be a lot of space.
My favourite library is Pasila Library (…
