The eighth of September is International Literacy Day. In honor of that, we want to tell the townspeople and visitors about the Rovaniemi Rotary Club’s open bookshelf!
Rovaniemi Rotary Club has placed a bookshelf on the second floor of the Sampo shopping center for the pleasure of reading lovers. Any visitor can take books with them. You can also donate books you don’t need to it for others to read.
1-2 times a year we organize a collection to get new books on the shelf and to increase the recognition of the shelf. Our goal is for people to learn to recycle books, because they can bring a lot of joy to another person. Recycling also reduces the waste load.
As a tourist town, we hope to have Lapland-related books on the shelves and books in foreign languages for tourists. Children’s and youth books are always in high demand. Instead, you can put old information books and dictionaries directly in the paper collection, as long as you first remove the covers from them. Welcome to get to know!

The basis of Rotary activities are local Rotary clubs, which bring together influencers to do good in their own community. As a Rotarian, you can implement meaningful charity projects near and far. You can find more information about us and our contact information on our website and Facebook:
