Library
The Nordic Culture Point library at Kajsaniemigatan 9 in Helsinki is the only specialist Nordic library in Finland. We have fiction, non-fiction, children’s literature, and magazines in all the Nordic languages. Here you can read Nordic newspapers, sit down and work, or flick through the children’s books in our cosy book grotto together with your little ones.
