New content to read and listen to every week
E-library contains e-books, audiobooks and digital journals in Finnish, Swedish and English. Some material is also available in other languages. The selection includes hundreds of titles, and more content is being continuously added. There is new content to read and listen to every week.
You can borrow e-books and audiobooks for two weeks, after which they will be automatically returned. You can also return books your-self before the end of the loan period. Journals can be read for two hours at a time. You can have up to five books on loan at the same time.
As the number of reading rights is limited, you can place a hold on the most popular content. The maximum number of concurrent book holds is five.
E-library is used with an app
Download and install the E-library app on your phone or tablet from the relevant app store (e.g., Google Play or App Store). If necessary, the library of your city or municipality will assist inusing the service.
You don’t need a library card. Instead, you register as an E-library user through strong authentication (bank credentials or a mobile certificate) in the suomi.fi service. E-library can be used by anyone whose municipality of residence has joined the service. In connec-tion with the authentication, your municipality of residence will be checked on the basis of your address.
E-library is a shared service for municipalities, produced by the National Library of Finland in cooperation with public libraries.
