Information search
At times, the need for information knows no time or place, which
is why the Library of Statistics offers free the following
information searching tools that can be used round the clock.
- Tilda catalogue
database
- Tilda contains all the books, series publications, journals and
electronic materials in the collections of the Library of
Statistics from 1980 onwards. Tilda can be used for information
searches and loan renewals.
- International
statistics
- Statistics, database sources, producers and publishers of
statistics.
- WebStat
- WebStat is a database, built and maintained by the Library of
Statistics, which contains statistics that can be accessed via the
Internet. The statistics are classified by subject and country.
Searches from WebStat produce descriptions of the statistics
concerned and links to the available data sources.
- Statistical
yearbooks on the internet
- Statistical yearbooks are general publications which contain
key statistics on society and its development during the past years
and decades. Yearbook tables contain source references which can,
when necessary, be used to find the original source. Yearbooks have
the additional advantage of providing an alphabetical index.
Statistical yearbooks from more and more countries have become
freely accessible online.
- Ask the information specialist
- If you cannot find the information you are looking for from
these sources, you can ask for help from the duty information
specialist, who will answer your query within two working days at
the latest.
- Ask the EU information
specialist
- The European Statistical Data Support (ESDS) provides support
to independent information search. In Finland the service functions
as part of the information service of the Library of Statistics and
all Eurostat's printed and electronic materials are for customer
use in its premises.
