Dear Sir
We very much regret that we can't send the copy of the musical work by Erik Fordell because we only have the original one. The Finnish law of copyright forbids us as authorities to make any copy.
You seem to have sent your question on the 4th of December, while there was a temporary interruption in the "Your Record" section of HelMet service.
I just tested creating a new list and saving titles in it. It now worked out quite alright. So I suggest you try again. This time there shouldn't be any problems, but if there still are, please contact us again.
We discussed of this situation at gmail and everything is now ok. I took the fee away and returned "The lost plays". You have returned it and it´s missing at library. You have no more responsibility of that loan.

In Finland municipalities are not obligated to have school libraries. Most schools have a library although they may be outdated and have a rather modest collection. Many schools cooperate with the public library. Some municipalities have their own information literacy curriculum which schools and libraries have compiled together. Accordingly to the National Core Curriculum for Basic Education organizations like museums, sport facilities, art centra, public libraries are seen as learning environments.

After consulting the history of Kuusamo, only in finnish, I am sad to say, I can inform you, that Kyrkbyn, which means Kirkonkylä in finnish and actually Church village was situated where Kuusamo center is today.
Kirkonkylä was allways very small with only four houses, the priest and other church officals lived there.
The village was complety destroid during the War in Lapland, World war II, and rebuilt in the fifties. A big hotel was constructed there The Hotelli Kuusamo.

The best way to start your research is to visit the United Nations Statistics Division site at http://unstats.un.org/unsd/default.htm . It provides a lot of useful information, statistical databases and links to national statistical sources.
The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) ( http://www.unece.org/stats/data.htm ) provides statistics on European and North American countries.
You can also contact the Library of Parliament, the official depository for the publications of the UN ( http://www.eduskunta.fi/kirjasto/Welcome-eng.html ) or the United Nations University, WIDER ( http://www.wider.unu.edu ) in Helsinki. Their library focuses on developing countries, but they also provide the official statistics of the UN.
Finnish Public Library Statistics website contains statistical information about Finnish public libraries. You can choose any particular municipality, for example, Helsinki by clicking the “Municipality” alternative and then pressing the search button. You can then select a required municipality from the dropdown menu. The first web-address is for the Finnish Public Library Statistics homepage and the second one gives you all the key statistical figures for the Helsinki City Library in 2003.
