Using the the library after graduation
Uniarts Helsinki library is open for everyone, and students can use the library after graduation.
When you are graduating you don’t have to say goodbye to the library, but you can use our services and borrow materials as before. Here’s what you need to take into account and what changes after you graduate.
Update your information
After graduating your personal information is no longer automatically updated and you need to update it yourself in Arsca. It’s especially important to update your e-mail address (to other than @uniarts.fi address) before graduation, because in the future you’ll log in to Arsca with your e-mail address.
Library card
Using Tuudo app is not possible after your Uniarts credentials stop working. Therefor you will not be able to use Tuudo to borrow library materials or renew your loans.
Using only a virtual library card is still possible after graduation. You can find it when logging in to Arsca (Your Account – Library Cards). The card works in the same way as the Tuudo library card at the library’s borrowing machines.
You may also get a physical library card at the library’s customer service. Be prepared to prove your identity.
Electronic materials
You can’t access licensed electronic materials remotely without a valid Uniarts username, but there are computers available in the library you can use to access some of them. See also our database A-Z list for online resources that are openly available for everyone (the databases and other resources that don’t have a lock icon next to them).
Congratulations on your graduation!
