It is a 1594 edition of Snorre Sturlason's Sagas of the Kings, which arrived at the library in Time on Monday. The book will be exhibited and made available to the public.
“I have always been interested in Viking history,” says Haaland, according to NTB.
In connection with the gift, he has also announced a reading competition for the municipality's children. Ten selected students will be rewarded with tickets to an international match at Ullevål.
And interest already seems to be great.
“It is nice to hear that the library is being packed with children who want to read,” says his father, Alf-Inge Haaland, who shares his son's interest in Viking history.
