No fees are collected for using the exhibition area in the main library or the exhibition spaces in the local libraries. The Mikkeli-sali hall in the main library, in contrast, has a user fee (see below).
The organiser of the event or exhibition is responsible for supervising the event, implementing and supervising the exhibition, and the exhibition material.
