Reading tables are reserved first in the library. In the afternoons 71% of the Kaisa House’s reading places are full, while in the morning and evening there is more room.
The number of reading places has been increased in all our library locations during 2015-2018, and new ideas for better use of our premises are being developed all the time. Changes are made, for example, in the Main Library’s 7th floor and the Kumpula Campus Library this spring.
You can help us! Make sure that there are enough reading places for as many as possible
Some of the reading tables are intended for University of Helsinki students, researchers and staff exclusively.
Make sure your belongings don’t take over the places near you. Take care of your belongings, and watch out for thieves.
When using a reading table you may leave for a short period, but no longer than 30 minutes.
