Documents older than 100 years are digitised by the National Archives of Finland.
For newer documents, you need to ask from the church registry from the right parish. The Geneological Society of Finland has tips on their website.
Have you tried sites like MyHeritage or Geni yet? Perhaps a relative has already started a research on your family.
Good luck and hope you find your relatives!

Services for teens differs between Public libraries in Finland.
In the Public Libraries Act (1492/2016) it says, that public libraries are tasked with:
1) providing access to materials, information and cultural contents;
2) maintaining versatile and up-to-date collections;
3) promoting reading and literature;
4) providing information services, guidance and support in the acquisition and use of information and in versatile literacy skills;
5) providing premises for learning, recreational activities, working, and civic activities;
6) promoting social and cultural dialogue.
These services are of course aimed at teens also and very often libraries co-operate with schools to provide these services for teens. It is very common…
The studios can be reserved via a system called Varaamo, https://varaamo.hel.fi/, but these kind of services are very popular and it isn't likely that you can get a room at such a short notice. You could visit Oodi in the city center and ask if they could help you in any way, since you only are here for one day and Varaamo perhaps doesn't help you.

Hello
It looks like Humalistonkatu has the numbers 1-13 in Karjaa, which would mean that the address has changed. Unfortunately the Address service by the Digital and Population Data Services Agency is only available from Finland. I would suggest free address search services, like fonecta.fi.
According to the history of the Espoo City Library, Kun pienestä tuli suuri (Tuovi Määttänen, editor, Espoon kaupunginkirjasto 2006), the library in the area was first a room in the school. In the end of the 1980's school needed the room and 1988 a building for the Karhusuo library was built. Now library is again in the same building as the school when a new school was built in the area in 2020.
This video is from the 1988 building: https://www.kirjastokaista.fi/espoon-kirjastot-karhusuo/

Hello,
Courses in finnish are available at several institutions and Private enterprises. The adult education branch at Helsinki city is a good starting point.
After achieving a certain level you can ask about kieliharjoittelu, or language traineeship at the Helsinki or Espoo city library.

https://www.espoo.fi/fi-FI/Kulttuuri_ja_liikunta/Kirjasto/Tarvitsemme_s…
Unfortunately, the book is not available for the public use. You have to buy a license to read it. For example, in our library one can read the book inside parliament's own network, because we have bought the license to use it. Only options are commercial e-book bookshops, like: https://www.kauppakamarikauppa.fi/collections/juridiikka-kirjat/products/opas-keskuskauppakamarin-valimiesmenettelysaantoihin-guide-to-the-finnish-arbitration-ruleshttps://lakitieto.edita.fi/verkkokauppa/rikos-ja-prosessioikeus/rikos-ja-prosessioikeus-kirjat/guide-to-the-finnish-arbitration-rules/
