The first customer survey for Tampere3 libraries was organized in March. We received a total of 1080 responses (UTA 813, TAMK 181, TUT 86). The largest group of responders by far were the students, who generally are the most active in giving feedback. To all respondents warm thanks for the important feedback!

The staff of the three libraries has already been planning the services of the future library for months. In the library projects, we are developing the customer service processes, the services for publishing and open science as well as the training offered on information seeking. At the same time, we are preparing the acquisition of a new library system. When realized, it will renew the library's digital services to better suit the changing customer needs of today and even tomorrow.

One of the top products of Tampere's new university community may very well be the Growthmakers programme, which is launching for the first time in autumn 2018. After all, people who can spur business growth and have a talent for international sales are needed in every sector.
