- Accessibility
- The route to the main entrance is uneven and has steps. The Humalistonkatu entrance has a smooth, wide approach, and the building has lifts. An accessible toilet is on the first floor. A dog is present at the event. If a dog allergy, fear of dogs or another individual need affects participation, confirm the arrangements with the library before visiting.
