I asked your question from our e-informaticist. She answered that they're working on including the e-library as an option to the compulsory field in our HelMet-website. Before that you can send your acquisition request straight to her. Her email address is marja.hjelt(a)hel.fi
Hello there!
Because you know so exactly the name of the article you can give us little bit more information where you have heard about it. I searched with Internet search services and some other sources - no result.
If I may say my opinion this "article" is more like a short story or novel than research or fact. Kind of a horror story If I may guess. So we here in the library try to search it from fiction shelves. Little bit extra information from your side couldn't do any harm.
With regards
Librarian
I guess you'd have more useful info if you contact any American information service, but we could gather something for you, though the texts themselves are mostly American anyway. In the Finnish university libraries' database I could find a couple of books.

Kari Tuomisaari has written the Finnish lyrics to the song. The Finnish version is called "Kuume". The most famous interpretation of the song is Laila Kinnunen's version from 1959. Many artists have recorded the song afterwards.
About ISBN standards i advise you to contact the National Library of Finland, there is some information about standar numbers on their pages, http://www.nationallibrary.fi/publishers/isbn.html . Also the contact information can be found there. Since your question comes from Korea, i believe you might also get some useful information from the National library of Korea, http://www.nl.go.kr . In english they have information about ISBN, http://www.nl.go.kr/nlmulti/activities/isbn.php?lang_mode=e and i guess the homepage in korean might contain even more information. I hope this information is useful for you!
I presume that you are writing from Minnesota. If so, how do you intend to acquire these books? We have an interlibrary loans department here in the Helsinki City Library. You can go to your local library and asked them are they willing to make these interlibrary loan requests from Finland. Postal costs can be inhibitive but if you are willing to make that investment, we are more than willing to send you these books. We have no ready list of these books, but books that would fall within the scope you described are called “selkokirjat” in Finnish, in other words, books with somewhat simplified syntax and vocabulary. You can go to our bibliographic database and by using the advanced search and write in the search field selkokirjat, then…

We are not experts on psychology or any of its different disciplines, but hopefully the following websites will give some idea how music is used in helping people to overcome depression. However, in short it would seem that some of the psychologists and psychiatrists are of the opinion that music can relieve stress and that it can enable people to open up to their inner conflicts and thus provide ways to solve the actual reasons behind depression.

The user regulations may vary from one library to another, but at least here in HelMet libraries (Helsinki Metropolitan Area Libraries) it is not necessary to have a Finnish social security number to get a library card. You only have to have an address in Finland and present a valid ID card or passport. If you do not have a Finnish social security number, your library card will only be valid for six months at a time. After that period, you have to visit the library to renew the validity of the library card.
Check the user regulations at http://www.helmet.fi/search~S9/ -> Help -> User regulations.
The item is not available in HelMet libraries anymore, but Lappeenranta and Kuopio public libraries have it furthermore in their collections.

If you need a book not available in Helsinki, you can browse library collections in whole Finland by using Frank-database. You find it here http://monihaku.kirjastot.fi/frank/ or by writing keyword Frank-monihaku to Google as well. On the first page you see all alternative search categories.
The stripes work as camouflage making zebras indistinguishable to other animals, and on the other hand they also actually help zebras recognize one another. See:

How the stripes have developed is a question of evolution:

In Kyyti-Library database search a line under Borrowing possible, Ordered and Due date means that the item is not free to be checked out. The reason can be the following: the item is either on the way to the customer or back to the library, or it is being handled by the library staff, or it is lost (and not yet withdrawn from the collection), or it is registered in the special local collection. Ask your library if you want to know the case of the item you are interested in.
