This issue has been on my mind for some decades now. At least we at the National Library of Finland take it almost for granted that we are at the forefront of developments in our field. We have encountered numerous innovations in the field of information technology, have adapted to them, and have learned to apply many routine procedures (such as descriptive cataloguing, OPAC, lending systems and electronic journals). In fact, we have led a number of paradigm shifts, including the introduction of electronic journals in the mid-1990s. Digitisation is a logical continuation of this paradigm, as are e-books and the management and extension of rights to researchers and the public at large. We safeguard the digital rights of our customers. If we do not negotiate more extensive rights, no-one else will. Creating an infrastructure around all of this, and managing digital libraries and their user rights, fall self-evidently within our realm of duties. National libraries will discuss these issues at the annual Conference of Directors of National Libraries, to be held in connection with the upcoming conference of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions. What solutions have been reached with regard to the vast resources of the Library of Congress, how can we create partnerships in this increasingly commercial world, and how can we acquire rights, funding and wider access to these resources? Indeed, I am eagerly waiting to hear the response of Brewster Kahle, the founder of Internet Archive, to the question in the heading above. We must increasingly lend an ear to the undertakings of the business world. If you can’t beat them, join them. What counts is perseverance and success. This has been the secret of libraries thus far. Kai Ekholm, Director, Professor National Library of Finland The National Library of Finland Bulletin 2016 HOME EDITORIAL ABOUT Speech by Jenni Haukio, spouse of the President of the Republic of Finland, at the inaugural event of the National Library of Finland on 1 March 2016 Dear guests, “On the door to the temple of literature it says: education and enlightenment. These we must live up to as human beings. Not only does literature depict life and circumstances, it also supports education and encourages enlightenment.” These are the words of Rietrikki Polén, a Fennoman and the first ever to defend a dissertation in Finnish, back in 1858. Education and enlightenment. Right here, at the National Library of Finland – the architectural masterpiece of Carl Ludwig Engel and the heart of the nation’s memory – these two words encapsulate it all. The recently renovated National Library,whose inauguration we now celebrate, is a unique example of construction history, as well as a modern cultural and service institute, which preserves and promotes our literary cultural heritage.in 1640. The National Library, which until 2006 served as the University of Helsinki’s main library, boasts a long history stretching back to the establishment of the Royal Academy of Turku The Library’s history is linked to both that of the Kingdom of Sweden and that of the Russian Empire. The National Library’s impressive main building is one of the most famous representatives of Empire architecture in Finland and one of Engel’s most highly appreciated works. The main building was completed in 1845 and its annex, designed by Gustaf Nyström, in 1906. The National Library of Finland Bulletin 2016 During its more than 170 years of service, the National Library has been renovated with great care and respect for the original design. This was also the case in the latest renovation, completed in late 2015, which improved the accessibility and functionality of the library facilities and modernised the building services. To mention a couple ofillustrative examples of the challenges involved in the National Library’s conservation: the restorers used erasers to bring out the specular highlights of the painted decorations in the semicircular recesses of the Cupola Hall and examined the cupola by tapping it inch by inch to produce a diagram of the cracks based on the resulting sounds. “Conservators from different fields worked on their own projects side by side with construction workers responsible for the less painstaking procedures. All parties showed mutual respect for one another despite the schedule being tight and different work phases overlapping,” says architect Kati Winterhalter, who served as the conservation coordinator in the Library’s renovation project. Strong solidarity and uncompromising mutual respect have always led to success in Finland – and did so again. Rakennuslehti magazine nominated the National Library’s renovation project its 2014 construction site of the year. Dear inaugural guests, the National Library of Finland being described as one of the world’s most beautiful libraries aptly symbolises the general significance of libraries to our nation. Libraries are at the core of our success story. Throughout the decades, Finns have placed their hopes on education – believing that learning and education are the only path to a better future. Around one in three Finns reads at least one book a month. In 2014 the National Library received over 70,000 physical and over one million virtual visits. The number of library loans in all of Finland totalled nearly 70 million. Were it not for the system of public libraries which evolved in the early 20th century we would hardly be the nation of readers we are today. And had we not become a reading nation we would hardly figure among the world’s top countries in nearly all surveys of wellbeing and competitiveness. Dear inaugural guests, To reiterate the quote by Rietrikki Polén that I started with: education and enlightenment, these we must live up to as human beings. I strongly agree. Our only chance to uphold humanity is to live up to education and enlightenment and look after our cultural heritage, Compromising humanity can have dire consequences on cultural heritage, as can be seen in Syria, where, according to some estimates, nearly all of the country’s Unesco World Heritage Sites are under threat of destruction or have already been partly destroyed. Although Syria, Iraq and many other deeply devastating crises around the world are far removed from our stable Nordic peace, they serve to remind us that in this age nothing is as certain as uncertainty. We have come to take both our global and our national cultural heritage for granted, something that is automatically safeguarded. The National Library of Finland Bulletin 2016 We have taken for granted that our museums stay open, that the collections of libraries and archives accumulate and that existing monuments are maintained and new ones are erected. This is fortunately still true today, and hopefully will remain true in the future as well. It appears, however, that our modern society no longer has any sacrosanct areas that the scarcity of resources would leave untouched. We truly need to promote culture now – perhaps more than ever before.

  • Learning to Teach in Finland: Historical Contingency and Professional Autonomy
    Learning to teach in Finland: historical contingency and professional autonomy Janne Säntti (University of Helsinki) & Jaakko Kauko (University of Tampere) Abstrac This chapter demonstrates how the evolution of Finnish teacher education has been gradual and not linear with a major shift towards an emphasis on research skills as the central feature of teacher knowledge. The historical phases in the evolution of teacher education, which can be characterized as normative, pedagogic and research-based are connected to Finland’s general societal trajectories and education policy developments. There has been a strong tendency towards academisation or even scientification in the Finnish teacher education agenda, which has been powered by the involvement of professors of teacher education in shaping the key policy questions with moderate political intervention over recent decades. These questions include visions of what constitutes a good or ideal teacher and what it means to teach effectively. The chapter concludes that teacher education has been searching for academic credibility to justify its position in the university, which has not previously been self-evident. I Introduction The work of Finnish teachers in primary and secondary education is framed by a national core curriculum, which is decided at the national level and based on the education providers, usually municipalities, that draw up their own local curricula. However, in Finland teachers have a rather high degree of professional autonomy. On the one hand, this autonomy derives from the lack of strong managerial techniques to control the implementation of the curriculum, such as inspection or national standardised tests (Simola et al., 2009). On the other hand, this strong teacher autonomy is a result of historical processes that have formed the current practice in which classroom knowledge is ideally built case-by-case drawing on research yet organized according to the national core curriculum.

  • From the Execu- Tive Director
    FROM THE EXECU- TIVE DIRECTOR In 2012, UNICEF Finland was able to report much good news. The mortality rate of small children has been reduced by almost half in twenty years. Polio is almost eradicated from the globe, an increasing number of girls are able to go to school, and 80 per cent of the world’s population has access to clean water. It is also good news that the Committee introduced international principles to assist Finnish companies in acting to improve the position of children both in Finland and ab- road. And it is excellent news that the number of pledge donors reached the impressive number of more than 77,000 at the end of the year. The steady increase in the number of do- nors year after year shows that people care. The good news is the result of joint efforts, and the thanks for this goes to us all. Govern- ments, organizations, communities, donors, experts in various fields, and ordinary people have each played their part for a better world. It is this precisely that is the power of UNICEF. It allows various parties to work together to promote children’s rights. Warm thanks to all our supporters. Thank you for working with UNICEF Finland to create permanent changes for children all over the world.
