Library 10 "in tune with the times"

I hope you will check out this cool public library in Helsinki, Finland
  • Library 10
  • .


    The library collection consists of 34,000 music recordings, DVDs, sheet music and musical literature. There is a music studio with guitars and keyboards available to loan. You can play music or make a music video. I think I would enjoy the leather sofas in the baroque corner and maybe check out the travel books!

    The music, Information Gas Station, 40 computer stations and automatons for self-service borrowing and returning appeal to the young male citizens of Helsinki who were not using the other library branches. This branch opened in 2005 and is visited by 4,000 people each day!

    I will have to put this on my list of libraries I would like to visit!!!
