Renovation of the facade of Hervanta Library underway

The renovation of the facade of the Hervanta library building started in September 2024 and will be completed in July 2025. In March, the replacement of the brick cladding of the building will begin, which will cause noise disturbance in the library during weekdays from 7 am to 6 pm.  Construction site fences will restrict access to the courtyard area. In the spring, work will also begin on the library's lighting, which will cause occasional exceptional conditions in the library.

The disabled parking spaces in front of the library building are currently out of use due to the renovation of the facade, and no replacement parking for customers can be arranged. Please take note of these changes when you come to the library.

We will inform you of the changes as the work progresses.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused by the renovation!

The Hervanta Library is located next to the busy DUO shopping centre. The library operates on the second floor of the building designed by Raili and Reima Pietilä with a bubbling fountain in centre stage.  

Hervanta Library has a versatile and multilingual collection. What’s special about the library is the Hervanta collection.  

You can come and read in the quiet reading room or book a piano room or exhibition space. And come check out the library's cultural and children’s events!  

  • Return boxes are located on both sides of the main doors. Returns only when the library is closed. Items will be returned on the next opening day.
  • Visiting with dogs: short visits with a well-behaved dog are allowed. The owner must ensure that the dog does not have contact with other customers.
