in a few words:
Bibliometrics is a research method used in library and information science. It utilizes quantitative analysis and statistics to describe patterns of publication within a given field or body of literature.
Researchers may use bibliometric methods of evaluation to determine the influence of a single writer, for example, or to describe the relationship between two or more writers or works.
One common way of conducting bibliometric research is to use the Social Science Citation Index, the Science Citation Index or the Arts and Humanities Citation Index to trace citations.

A translation database is kept by the Finnish Literature Society library and the Finnish Literature Information Centre. The database contains details of translations of Finnish (Finnish, Sámi and Finland-Swedish) literature, folk poetry, children's literature and general non-fiction since 1812.

This book can be found in Finland in the following two libraries for example: Jyväskylä University Library and Kuopio University Library.

Surprisingly it seems there is no complete database of school libraries in Finland. Libraries.fi-site, which lists almost all libraries in Finland, when using the key word koulukirjasto, only gives three school libraries: in Lieto (Keskuskoulun ja lukion kirjasto) and Ilmarinen and Tarvasjoki (which both belong to the of City of Lieto). However, according to the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) 2021, there was a school library in 67 % of schools (Leino).Municipalities can decide independently whether to have libraries in schools or not. The law (Section 47 § Supportive activities) merely suggests that "library, club and other activities closely relating to education may be arranged In conjunction with basic…
Finnish libraries are in that way independent that their mobile libraries have own time tables and schedules. That means that they can have very different resources and that every mobile library does not circulate every day. If you want to study the activities or timetables of mobile libraries, you can find them here, https://directory.libraries.fi/search?q=mobile%20libraries. It is possible however that not every library has included opening hours and routes of their mobile services here. In that case you can ask the library in question, the contact information can be found in the same directory. This kind of information can't be found in our statistic database, https://tilastot.kirjastot.fi/?lang=en.

A first grader can get a library card with a library card application form that one of the parents/guardians has filled in and signed. A teacher can not sign the form on behalf of the parent/guardian. The form can also be found online on our website vaski.finna.fi.
A child can get a library card when visiting a library with a teacher if they have the signed form with them. The card has to be retrieved from a library, we do not deliver them to schools.

Hello,starting point is that all services in public libraries are free of charge. Still here in Finland there are little differences how libraries run their space etc. reservation policy. This is due every city, county or region have more or less their own library networks and therefore their individual ways to organize services. I suggest you to contact the library where you want to work at and ask about their services and space etc.. Give a call or contact service desk for some libraries don't have space to be reserved. In some libraries card is needed and in some it´s not, I´d guess depending nature of necessity and type of the space. For a library card photo identity card is needed.Since you addressed your question here in…

Unfortunately we don't have Bilotta's book. There seems to a copy in Denmark and then naturally in the UK, so you can try to get the book as an interlibrary loan.
You can make a loan request in any public library. The interlibrary loans are however not free of charge, see http://www.lib.hel.fi/page.asp?_item_id=2227
It is a small library service point.
The link is an article translated into Russian from the Finnish Wikipedia about institutional libraries, that is laitoskirjastoista.

Unfortunately, the book is not available for the public use. You have to buy a license to read it. For example, in our library one can read the book inside parliament's own network, because we have bought the license to use it.
