What is the Learning Centre?

The Otaniemi Campus Library was renovated 2015-2016 due to which it became Harald Herlin Learning Centre. At the same time the Aalto University Library turned into Aalto University Learning Centre.

Library services are still part of our core supply of services but our facilities also enable you to record your performance on video (Studio), to get familiar with virtual reality (VR hub) and much more.

 

Learning about the Learning Centre services and information retrieval

New students will get to know the Learning Centre and its services by completing information retrieval learning exercises as a part of the Pre-Orientation. New students will visit the Learning Centre during the orientation week in autumn with their new students' group.
