Abstract

It is not usual that there is a good library or learning centre in vocational institutes in Finland. Finland has a functional network of general libraries, but no national policy for school libraries. Nevertheless, some vocational institutes in Tampere Region have been able to realize a vision of the school library as an open learning environment; as a pedagogical tool and a source of innovations.
AVOKI project – Developing of Open Learning Environments in Secondary Education in Tampere Region, is our answer to the biggest challenges of school libraries in vocational institutes.
