Hello,
You can get a new library card at any Helmet library by showing your ID card (with a photo) to the library personnel. At the library they can also check out, if your lost library card is maybe found, and can be fetched from a library somewhere. The cost for a new card is 3 euros for adults, and 2 euros for children.
Note, however, that you can also borrow books with an ID card, from the desk if there's personnel present, and if you are a registered customer.
It is also possible to get a virtual library card to your smart phone by installing an app called Taskukirjasto, but you need to know your library card number and pin code in order to use it. With Taskukirjasto you can also renew your loans, make reservations etc.
