The Lumo library in Korso has a book recycling point in the Lumo building's lobby.
The instructions are as follows:
"Recycling point for books brought in by customers. Bring up to five books at a time. You can take as many as you like."
There is also a book recycling point in the lobby of the Korso shopping centre (the one with the S-Market, a flower shop and others).
In addition to these, the capital area recycling centres often take books.

Unfortunately, you cannot renew the loan, because another customer has reserved the book. But luckily for you, because of the corona epidemic, the due dates of all loans expiring today have been postponed by two weeks. So, now the due date of your loan is 30.03.2020.

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.

Thank you for your question. Yes, it is possible for libraries to loan physical books from other libraries. We call it interlibrary loan. From city libraries our charge of an interlibrary loan is 4 euros, from university, university of applied sciences or special libraries the charge is 13 euros.
The book you need is in collection of Helsinki city library. However the book is now on loan. If you want to have the book as soon as possible, we need to order it from university libraries. If you are studying in Xamk (South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences) the easiest for you is to order the book from Kouvola library campus. The Kotka library campus will do it for you.
If you want us to make an interlibrary loan request, please…
Thank you for your kind thought and offer! I suggest to contact Multilingual Library, which locates in Pasila Library, and offer donations there.You can contact Multilingual library directly via e-mail: monikielinen.kirjasto@hel.fiYou can find more information about Multilingual library here:https://www.libraries.fi/multilingual-library?language_content_entity=en https://helmet.finna.fi/OrganisationInfo/Home?lng=en-gb#84923
Kiela (sarvikiela) on suopungin osa, perinteisesti poronsarvesta tehty kahdeksikonmuotoinen silmukka. Pohjoissaameksi se on (čoarve)giella. Sana giella voi tarkoittaa myös ansalankaa tai erityisesti riekonansaa.
Saamelaiskielten etymologisesta tietokannasta voi etsiä saamen kielen sanoille vastineita eri kielissä. Esimerkiksi inarinsaamesta löytyy kielâ ja eteläsaamesta giële. Uumajan- ja piitimensaamesta ei tietokannan mukaan löydy sanalle vastineita.
Ainakaan Álgu-tietokannasta keala-sanaa ei löydy. On toki mahdollista, että kyseessä on jonkin vanhan, käytöstä poistetun oikeinkirjoituksen mukainen kirjoitusasu.
Pohjoissaamen kielestä löytyy vielä gealli/geala, joka tarkoittaa kelaa tai vintturia. Se on kuitenkin todennäköisesti…

The problem is that if you are using the library in Kajaani, your choices are fewer. None of these books seem to be available in Kainet, https://kainet.finna.fi/. I tried to find other material in English…
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. Only options are commercial e-book bookshops, like: https://www.kauppakamarikauppa.fi/collections/juridiikka-kirjat/products/opas-keskuskauppakamarin-valimiesmenettelysaantoihin-guide-to-the-finnish-arbitration-ruleshttps://lakitieto.edita.fi/verkkokauppa/rikos-ja-prosessioikeus/rikos-ja-prosessioikeus-kirjat/guide-to-the-finnish-arbitration-rules/
Unfortunately the library card you have for Forssa doesn't work in Vaasa. You can easily apply for a library card at any of our libraries with a valid photo ID (for example, a passport or a driving licence).All Vaasa city library locations have a wide range of materials for children, young people and adults. All of the libraries have "Opi lukemaan"-books (learn to read) for children. Those books could be a good start for your child as well. Also selkokirjallisuus (easy to read) could be a good option. Both of the categories have different reading levels, so it's probably easiest if you come to the library to see these books in person. The "Opi lukemaan" category has book series such as "Punainen banaani", "Sininen banaani", "…
The studios can be reserved via a system called Varaamo, https://varaamo.hel.fi/, but these kind of services are very popular and it isn't likely that you can get a room at such a short notice. You could visit Oodi in the city center and ask if they could help you in any way, since you only are here for one day and Varaamo perhaps doesn't help you.
There is a few board games in Helmet Libraries which help you to study Finnish. For example:

Suomen mestarin sanapeli : sanastoa kasvattava korttipeli kielenopiskelun tueksi
