What´s going on

Vantaa will open its self-service libraries to clients at the turn of August-September 2021. Vantaa's self-service libraries are Kivistö Library, Länsimäki Library, Point Library, and Pähkinärinne Library.

Helmet libraries will start charging customers a fee of €1 for reservations that have not been picked up or cancelled by the last pick-up date. Reserving materials will continue to be free of charge.
The uncollected reservation fee will be introduced 1 June 2021.

Vantaa City Library arranges a Tastes for the Mind reading-promotion summer campaign that aims to encourage families with children to read and to use library services. The campaign begins on June 21 and ends on August 31.   

Printing, photocopying and scanning at Vantaa libraries is free of charge. You can print or photocopy at max. 20 black-and-white or two color sheets per day. 

As of June 1, 2021, you can again print at Vantaa libraries. At the same time, we will be applying the print@vantaa.fi service to all customer printing. Using the printing service requires that you have an email address.

The self-service hours of Point library in the evenings and over the weekends will be reduced for the period of October 21-December 31, 2019.

Marlene wil be in Point library until week 12. Hi, my name is Marlene Furian. I am a social worker from Germany, 24 years old and on my university break until April 2018. Until then I will spend my time in the Point library and offer small visitors to have some games with me or other library activities. I will be the big sister for any cases.

The space of Point library will be re-arranged from 18th to 19th December 2017. At the same time new furniture will be bought to the library. All materials in the library will be packed in boxes for the duration of the arrangement and the materials will not be available on Tuesday 19th December. The work will start already on the previous week, when some of the library material will be packed.

I’m Venla, a 19 year old soon-to-be university student. I’m very excited to be working at the Point library this summer 2017 for one month. So far I’ve enjoyed constantly learning new things about the library, for example discovering its extensive collection of movies, music, and e-books.

In the year 2016 the library was full of different workshops for kids. Illustration Club made collages and dived into ocean themed poetry. Cut-out animation workshop made animations out of pieces of paper. Creativity Club made comics, origamis and a coloring book. Workshop activities continue also in the year 2017!
