The aim of this bachelor thesis is to examine librarians experiences on working with e-mediums and how the digital divide affects the visitors of the libraries possibilities to access information. The method for the study is qualitative interviews with librarians about the electronic section of the library. As a basis of the analysis I have used Michael Bucklands theory about avaliability. It presents issues with barriers that can affect how well the visitors at the library can provide themselves with information. I have chosen to find answers to my research questions through qualitative interviews with five librarians at different public libraries in Sweden.The questions are focusing on how the librarians have experienced their work with e-books and how they think that the visitors of the libraries feel about electronic mediums. Also on how the digital divide affects on how well the users of the library achives information.  The librarians experiences of working with e-mediums is similair. The adventages that were lifted was the availability with e-books, the users can get them directly and do not need to wait for the physical book to come in to the library. It is easy to download and easy to carry with you. Also the fact that several people can borrow the e-book at the same time. The cons are the costs from the publishers and the limitation on what shall be availible for the libraries to take in.
