En fallstudie om ungdomars integritet på folkbibliotek : Motsättningen mellan rutiner och lagar med hänsyn till barns rättigheter / A case study regarding the privacy of teenagers at public library : The tension between working routines and laws regarding children's rights

Ekberg, Johanna January 2020 (has links)
Since January 2020, The Convention of the Rights of the Child (CRC) has been implemented in Swedish legislation. This has raised an awareness of children’s rights at public libraries. This thesis is a case study focused on the dilemma between children’s rights to privacy and parent’s authority of minor. The case study involves two libraries in a suburban area of the City of Gothenburg. It also involves several perspectives: interviews were carried out with librarians, the head of the library and teenagers. This study fills the gap in previous research of how libraries respect teenagers rights to freedom of information and secrecy regarding book loans, and if the library routines are in line with their rights, and this time from the teenager’s perspective. The study further explores the power perspective regarding library routines of teenager’s book loan, and the development psychology perspective of the consequences if mentioned rights are overruled. The study showed that the library chief and the librarians are aware of the discrepancy between the children’s rights, parents’ authority, and library routines. There is an absence of distinct guidelines for the librarians on how to cope with the caregiver’s demands to get insight in minor’s library records to not overrule CRC and other applicable legislations, such as libraries obligation to protect library users’ informational privacy. The teenagers argued for the importance of privacy during their adolescence but said that previous library routines for book loans do not affect their literature choice. Still, some of them seems affected by their parent’s insight in their records, even if they do not notice the power impact themselves.
