The bigger bookstore
Suomalainen Kirjakauppa is the bigger of the two bookstores in downtown Lahti. The selection, as one can guess, tilted heavily towards Finnish literature, but there is a selection of English books available, too.
They have a good selection of newspapers and magazines, and maps can be found there, too.
The staff is friendly and they can order stuff for you from other stores in the chain, but that takes a few days — so be prepaper to hang out in the region.
