Helsinki's Oodi Library

Our friends at the Finnish American Association (FAA) bringing Oodi, Helsinki's library, to your livingroom.

Visit Oodi’s public spaces, tech areas, and equipment, and “book heaven,” where you can sit and read a book under real trees. Expect some voices from Finland and a surprise or two from FAA folks on the scene! Saturday, April 18, 11:00 a.m. CDT (7 p.m. Finland).

FAA members are free, and non-members are encouraged to give a modest $5 donation. The Zoom link and link to donate are on their website.
