A valid OUTI library card and PIN are required to enter the library when there are no library staff members on the premises. You can get a PIN from your library in person.

Children and young people under 16 years of age can enter self-service libraries with their own library cards if their guarantor (selected parent or guardian) has authorized them in the customer register. The parent or guardian must visit the library in person and prove their identity with a valid ID card. The parent or guardian accepts full responsibility and liability for the use of self-service libraries with their child’s library card.

Organizational library cards cannot be used to enter self-service libraries.

Customers can use the self-service stations to borrow and return material, read books and magazines and use the customer computers independently. Computers cannot be reserved via Varaamo during self-service hours. Printing and photocopying can only be done when there are library staff members present during regular opening hours.

Reserved items can be picked up from the reservation shelf and borrowed using the self-service stations.

Customers that enter the library during self-service hours agree to follow the OUTI library rules and to keep the library clean and in good order. Customers must leave the premises when the self-service library closes and check that the library door is closed properly when entering or leaving the premises. The customer accepts full responsibility and liability for any alarm caused by the customer.

Customers that enter the library during self-service hours accept full responsibility and liability for any damages or losses caused by the customer or any other person that they let inside the library. If the customer is under 18 years old, a parent or guardian is responsible and liable for any damages or losses caused by the customer or any other person that they let inside the library. Disturbing behaviour towards the library staff or other customers, for example, may result in a suspension of the right to use the self-service library.

The safety and use of self-service libraries is monitored with video surveillance.

Libraries will continue to provide normal services during regular, staffed opening hours.
