National Repository Library services available again

06.08.2025 Leave a Comment on National Repository Library services available again

The relocation of the National Repository Library to its new premises has been completed. You can once again request materials from the National Repository Library through our Interlibrary Services.

Please note that materials borrowed from the National Repository Library before the closure were renewed with an extended loan period to cover the closure. As usual, we will send a separate reminder message to our customers when the borrowed interlibrary materials are due.

You can find more information about our Interlibrary Services on our website. If you have any questions, please contact our Interlibrary Services: kaukopalvelu@uef.fi

Library celebrates Pride

05.05.2025 Leave a Comment on Library celebrates Pride

We have been organizing book displays during the North Karelia and Kuopio Pride weeks for years. We received funding from UEF to support equity and diversity. Now we can take the Pride celebration to new heights!

Visit our traditional Pride book displays at our campus libraries and UEF Primo starting today. You can also now borrow a Pride flag for your celebrations! Flags are available in limited quantities at our customer service desk until the end of June. The loan period is 14 days.

Today also marks the start of our book recommendation campaign, where you can share your LGBTIQ+-themed reading tips during 5.5.-15.5.! Participate with this form. We will share recommendations anonymously on Instagram stories. Recommendations can be submitted anonymously, but (if you are a UEF student or staff member) by providing your contact information on a separate form, you can enter a raffle to win prizes fitting to the theme. The raffle rules can be found on the participation form.

Happy Pride!
