The National Repository Library opens in 1989.
The National Repository Library (NRL) is a resource shared by all Finnish libraries and information service centres. The NRL is the most economic way of storing library material. Because of the NRL, the need for extra shelf space in libraries throughout the country is decreased and can be controlled.
The basic function of the NRL is to receive, store and offer material for the use of other libraries. The NRL serves university and special libraries as well as public libraries, and acts as a connecting link in the library network.
The Goals
University Libraries of Oulu and Eastern Finland and NRL's cooperation turns out promising
To untangle the possibilities to store music recordings, starting with Public Music Libraries
With a LowTag put in place before the shipment, the NRL can put the test run available quickly
To maintain if not enhance the present state of search tools in the process
