Helsingin yliopiston kirjasto – Helsingfors universitets bibliotek – Helsinki University Library
This year’s Tutor Adventure is organised on Thursday April 4th, at 1 pm – 8 pm, on the City Centre campus. Almost all of the university’s 700 tutors participate in the Adventure.
The Tutor Adventure of HYY and UH Student Services consists of touring checkpoints in teams to learn tutoring skills and receive information about the services and activities of the University, the Student Union and other interest groups. Three of the checkpoints are located in the Main Library at the Kaisa House (on the 3rd, 5th and 7th floor).
Please notice, that the Tutor Adventure may cause a little extra noise in the library.
From March 3rd until April 28th the Main Library will be open from 11 am to 5 pm on Sundays, with the exception of Easter holidays (from Friday April 19th to Monday April 22nd), during which the building will be closed.
Entrance on Sundays is from Fabianinkatu or by lift from Kaisaniemenkatu (1st floor) or by lift from Helsinki University metro station (floor K1).
Finland’s most popular learning environment works as self-service library
On Sundays Kaisa House will function as a self-service library. The collections and facilities are available to customers on floors 2-7, basement floors K3 and K4 are closed. The customer service on the 3rd floor is closed.
You can pick up your reservations as self-service from the open shelves at the service desk. Should you have problems with using the library or the self-service facilities, phone service will be available.
In case you need a guest login to the University network, you are advised to acquire it earlier in the week.
The Main Library’s black chairs are washed. The work starts on the 7th floor on Wednesday 31 October, and continues on the lower floors. Therefore some of the reading places can temporarily lack chairs. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
The overnight return machine on Fabianinkatu will be renewed. Job will start on Wednesday March 28th in the afternoon and continue on Thursday afternoon, March 29th. The return machine is not in use during the work. The overnight return box should be operational again on Thursday afternoon.
After the Main Library is closed on Wednesday, you can return books to return boxes on Kumpula and Viikki Campus Libraries. The books will be registered as returned on the following work day.
On the Kumpula Campus the overnight return box is located at Physicum’s main entrance (Gustaf Hällströmin katu 2a), next to the gray side door.
Next to the main doors of the Viikki Campus Library (Info Centre), there is a joint return box for the Campus Library and the Helsinki City Library in which you may return materials at any time of the day.
From March 4th until April 29th the Main Library will be open from 11 am to 5 pm on Sundays, with the exception of Easter holidays (from Friday March 30th to Monday April 2nd), during which period the building will be closed.
Entrance on Sundays is from Fabianinkatu or by lift from Kaisaniemenkatu (1st floor) or by lift from Helsinki University metro station (floor K1).

There’s been quite an unpleasant wave of theft going on in the last few days.
The thieves seem to be operating professionally. Please, stay alert while you’re at the library and keep an eye on your belongings. Do not leave your things behind your back so that you do not see them. Do not leave valuables in your pockets.
