Everyone who has an address here in Finland can have the Helmet library card. Only thing is that you need to come to any of Helmet libraries in Helsinki, Espoo, Kauniainen or Vantaa with your ID with a picture and we will make you your library card. We don't send library cards via post so you are welcome to visit us.

Kirjastokortin myöntämiseen tarvitaan Suomessa oleva osoite, joten valitettavasti ulkomailla asuvan ei ole mahdollista saada korttia ja oikeutta aineiston käyttöön. Kortti tarvitaan myös e-kirjojen lainaamiseen, eikä erillistä lisenssiä niitä varten ole. Alla olevasta linkistä tietoa Helmet-kirjastojen kirjastokortista:

I asked the Finnish Higher Education Evaluation Council (FINHEEC) (http://www.minedu.fi/minedu/education/finheec/finheec.html) if there is some official board that ranks European polytechnics and universities. They told me that there is no such board. That is, there are no official ranking lists that compare polytechnics of Europe.
I have found university ranking lists produced by different institutions for a few separate European countries. They are

Many libraries in Helmet area have a book exchange service. You can take your books for example to Kallio, Pasila, Vallila, Rikhardinkatu or Library 10. However, the libraries prefer to take in only a few books at the same time, so if you plan to bring lots of them, please contact the staff in advance. Hopefully your books will find a new home!

Thank you for your request. Unfortunately I did not quite understand if it is Alajärvi Library that you would like to visit or some library in Helsinki.
If you meant Alajärvi Library, it would be best for you to contact them straight. Their e-mail address is kirjasto(at)alajarvi.fi .
If on the other hand it is Helsinki City Library that you are interested in, you could contact tiina.tarvonen(at)hel.fi . Here in Helsinki City Library we would be glad to give you a guided tour in the library and all the information you need. Your book donations would also be very welcome in our collections.

Surnames 'Keinonen' and 'Keinänen' are both believed to be derived from the word keino which in the Savonian dialect carries the meaning 'trap, snare, (a hunter's) trail'.

You have to have a degree on information and libraries studies in university.
In Finland you must be completed information studies about third of you examination.
In Finland you can work in libraries without having degree in information studies, but to be librarian you should have those studies in university.
We have been asked about working in libraries before.

If You reserve material for exampel from Pasila to Kannelmäki it is not interlibrary loan. Reservation from other Helmet Libary is free of charge.
