We will deliver digitally in Hämeenlinna

The National Archives of Finland delivers digitally orders for the Hämeenlinna branch's research room.

Order the material you need via the Astia online service in the same way as you would order a normal order for a researcher room. You will receive the material in digital format within 14 days.

Please note our summer break!

  • From July 1–31, we will not be accepting new orders for digital delivery, but all orders placed before July 1 will be digitized and made available on our Astia online service. If the material you ordered has viewing or usage restrictions, you can access it on our customer computers during each branch’s opening hours. The option to order materials for digital delivery will be available again on the Astia online service starting August 1.

Customer service and the acceptance of orders for digital delivery at the Hämeenlinna branch will end at the end of November.
