Despite of the politics of the Hitler regime, many (but not all) Finnish politicians and representatives of science and humanities in Finland continued their good relations with Germany.

In the modern theory of knowledge this is the starting point for big research projects. What means a justification? What is truth? Is belief an attitude or something else? Important questions, but there are other forms of knowledge, too, not only the traditional, propositional knowledge. Research in nursing has stressed the role of implicit knowledge-knowledge embedded in nursing practice. It is socially embedded and dialogical and cannot be made completely explicit. Certainly this kind of knowledge is essential in library work, too. The author suggests that Bildung, one of the main concepts of the German philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer, is of interest here. For Gadamer, Bildung is knowledge embedded in the practices of historians, art critics and any human being, who tries to understand another human being. Bildung is dialogical and develops in a society. The author of this article tries to show the importance of the Gadamerian "openness for others" for library work.
