After his presentation Päivi Jokitalo, the host of the webinar, goes through the viewers’ questions.

The first Nordic Libraries Annual conference concentrates on public libraries and sustainability. We approach sustainability from different points of view, as well as different points of expertise. The programme includes two main keynotes, presentations on approaches to sustainability in different Nordic countries, as well as shorter talks on Finnish development projects and best practices in libraries. Nordic Libraries Annual is presented by the Regional State Administrative Agencies (AVI) in Finland.
