Att vara eller inte vara öppet : en kvalitativ studie om krishantering på bibliotek under Covid-19 pandemin / To be or not to be open : a qualitative study about libraries crisis management during the Covid-19 pandemic

Wikman, Klara January 2021 (has links)
There is a general lack of information about how libraries manage crises, even though it has increased since Covid-19 it still is a very limited subject in LIS. The purpose of this bachelor’s thesis is to contribute information about how public libraries act and handle crises, particularly the debate whether or not the physical libraries should continue being open for the public or not during Covid-19 pandemic. The material for this thesis is made up of articles from the journal Biblioteksbladet. These articles all contained arguments for and against keeping the physical libraries open. The articles have been analysed with qualitative content analysis and thematic analysis. The theoretical frameworks used are capital theory and risk management. The results show that the arguments follow different themes. Those in support of keeping libraries open most often argue that libraries play a bigger role in society and are also a centre of information. Meanwhile, arguments against libraries being open are often themed around preventing the spread of infection, keeping the staff and visitors safe, and that libraries are not crucial for the country to survive.
