Open online publications in SeAMK-Finna

Open online publications have been added to SeAMK-Finna’s basic search. Open online publications can be used by anyone, so they are an addition to the library’s purchased materials. We will add more these open online publications to SeAMK-Finna when it is possible. We hope that these open publications will be useful to both students and staff in their search for information.

The latest open publications are The Finnish Centre for Pensions and Bank of Finland’s institutional repository.  Previously added open publications are The Library of Open Educational Resources and Institutional Repository for the Government.
