The National Library of Estonia (NLE) is also fulfilling the tasks of a parliamentary library and acting as a cultural centre. As a research Library, the NLE focuses on the humanities and social sciences, as a library research and development centre it provides professional training and coordinates LIS standardisation and terminology work.
At the beginning of May, the National Library of Estonia presented the collection “Livoniae Descriptio. Estonia and Livonia on old maps”, compiled by Estonian cartographer Tõnu Raid and the National Library’s Map Librarian Tiina Kruup.
