Please prepare for changes in library services during the summer

There will be changes to the library’s summer opening hours. This coming summer, the Joensuu and Kuopio Campus Libraries will be open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 8 to 15, with customer service available from 10 to 15. On Wednesdays, we will be open as usual from 8 to 18, with customer service from 10 to 18.

For the first time, we will experiment with a summer closure at the Kuopio Campus Library during the quietest period in July, 6–26 July 2026. However, you will still be able to access the facilities with a 24/7 access badge. If you do not yet have an access badge, please make sure to get one in advance!

The Joensuu Campus Library will remain open throughout the summer. Loan periods at both locations will extend beyond the Kuopio closure. Whichever campus library you use, please note that materials will not be transported between the Joensuu and Kuopio libraries during the closure. We encourage you to reserve any books you need well ahead of time.

You can find detailed opening hour information on our website. We will provide broader updates on how the summer will affect our services in May. We welcome your feedback on opening hours and other services through our online form.
