Introducing the Keski Libraries

Keski Libraries is a co-operation network between 23 municipalities in Central Finland. Thus, the Keski Libraries include all public libraries in the Central Finland region. There are more than 50 branch libraries in the area and several library mobiles. Keski Libraries share a common database that can be used to search for material and place reservations. A regular transportation network functions between the Keski Libraries. The co-operation provides for:

• shared library card
• shared library collection: 1,9 million borrowable items
• shared online library
• shared library rules
• free-of-charge material transportation
• shared e-materials

Practically this means that you can use all Keski Libraries with the same library card. If the material you desire is in another Keski Library's collection, you can order it to be delivered to your own local library free of charge.

You can return all the material you have borrowed to any Keski Library. As a Keski Library customer, you have the whole region's collection available.
