A Library Directory for Finland

Directory to help public locate library services.


The Library Directory provides the general public with a nationwide search engine to locate information about the location of libraries and the services they offer.

The Directory was created using open source technologies and is available in Finnish, Swedish and English. 

Finns are active users of library services.  Approximately 80% of them use their libraries regularly - ten times a year on average.  Library websites are visited more than 57 million times per year.
