Töölö Information

Töölö is an online children’s “cloud” library offering curated books, recommendations and physical delivery of books to your doorstep. Töölö means ‘Neighbourhoods’ in Finnish and that is what we aim to build - a thriving community of young readers in every neighbourhood across the country, by encouraging and empowering them to connect with each other and open the fascinating world of books to them. Töölö is committed to the cause of building a library for children by crowd sourcing the idle books lying in every household of that community. It is an online platform where children have access to a large and varied selection of books, peer recommendations as well as the chance to engage in a plethora of reading activities like storytelling sessions, author interactions and lots more!. One can order for books online and physical books then get home delivered and picked up once the child is done reading them. While on the one hand, the platform aims at meeting the needs of voracious readers; it also aspires to kindle the joy of reading in children who are not naturally drawn to books. The platform is designed in a manner where one can easily “discover” curated books across a variety of genres. After all, as J K Rowling herself said, “ If you don’t like to read, you haven’t found the right book! ”
