1	Förslaget, reaktionen, konflikten : En diskursanalytisk undersökning av Demokratins skattkammare och reaktionerna i två branschtidningar Jansson, Sigge, Bruss Smedlund, Andreas January 2021 (has links) The aim of this thesis is to examine discourses that surround the role of libraries as democratic institutions. This is done by studying the proposal for a National Strategy for Libraries, The Treasure Trove of Democracy. and the reactions to that document in two library journals. The questions asked are the following: how is the democratic role depicted in the proposal for a national library strategy? What were the reactions and what discourses characterized the relationship between the two library journals and the proposal for a national strategy? Are there any lines of conflict or tension within the identified discourses? Four discourses were identified: the library-democracy discourse, the children discourse, the political-administrative discourse and judiciary-argumentative discourse. Three out of the four discourses were present in both the library journals and the proposed strategy except the library- democratic discourse which was only explicitly found in the latter. The results indicate that the tension within the child discourse concerned means rather than objectives. The political-administrative discourse concerned demarcation questions regarding the municipal self-government. The judiciary- argumentative discourse permeated the entire empirical material and was rarely contested. The library-democratic discourse was the only discourse identified which was clearly present in the proposal for a National Strategy for Libraries and not in the two library journals. We suggest that this omission could be explained against the background of that the democratic role often is taken for granted.

2	Bibliotek för alla? : En kvalitativ innehållsanalys av Demokratins skattkammare utifrån ett intersektionellt perspektiv / Library for all? : A qualitative content analysis of The Treasure Trove of Democracy based on an intersectional perspective Bergquist, Lo, Svensson, Malin January 2020 (has links) The purpose of this bachelor’s thesis is to examine the libraries' view of their own role and its relation to democracy, to identify any obstacles to the library's mission on being an inclusive public space. We do this through a qualitative content analysis, based on intersectional theory, on the proposal for a National Strategy for Libraries, The Treasure Trove of Democracy. We conclude that depictions of libraries and librarianship represented in the empirical material limits the ability to break down discriminatory structures within the institution. vocational awe intersectionality intersectional theory national strategy for libraries The Treasure Trove of Democracy democracy library act inclusion neutrality bildung public library intersektionalitet intersektionell teori nationell biblioteksstrategi Demokratins skattkammare demokrati bibliotekslagstiftning inkludering neutralitet bildning folkbibliotek Information Studies Biblioteks- och informationsvetenskap
