Besides securing the availability of the published national heritage for the community, the National Library disseminates and produces information content for citizens and society, and develops services jointly with the library network and other players in the information society.
Values
Values of the National Library of Finland
• We are professionals and continue to develop our skills
• We work together.
• We act openly and reliably.
• Our national heritage is always present
• We promote access to information
We fully understand that the new era of content does not close doors but rather opens them: while it encourages us to make our splendid collections accessible to all, it also strengthens our belief in the centuries-old traditions of knowledge and literature.
