Progress of the maintenance work of the Joensuu Campus Library

Maintenance work has been carried out at the Joensuu Campus Library since August. Work will continue across the library for the rest of the year, and this will have temporary effects on moving in the facilities and the locations of the material. This may mean that there are alternative routes or that the location information in the Call Number Guide is slightly incorrect for a brief time. We will inform you about changes in more detail in the facilities so that the use of the library will be as smooth as possible also during maintenance work.

Liukula and Avola storage rooms are back in normal use. If you have any questions about changes caused by maintenance work, please contact our staff.
