Censur och urvalsbegränsning : En undersökning om hur bibliotekens urval begränsas och de som önskar göra detta / Censorship and limiting the collections : a study of how the libraries’ collections are restricted and the people wishing to do soKarlsson, Pontus January 2012 (has links)
This bachelor thesis has as its aim to investigate theSwedish librarians’ views and opinions about censorshipof their libraries' collections as well as buildinginformation about the context of challenges against thesame collections. In Sweden the public can't, unlike in theUSA, formally challenge material and are forcedto”complain” the subject with a librarian. What is deemedas controversial, both by the public and by the librariansthemselves are explored through qualitative interviewswith six librarians.The librarian's find that they rarely experience anythingthat can be called aggression or organized protests likethose found in the USA. The main arguments against partsof the libraries' collections seem to come from parentswanting to protect their children against what they deem tobe ”unfitting” themes, such as sex or sexuality or worksdeemed undignified, such as collections of jokes. Thelibrarians themselves are against censorship as a whole,but are very restrictive about the libraries' collections ofelectronic media. Video games and movies have to pass avery stern checklist to be procured resulting in a meagerselection for the libraries' visitors, compared to theselection of literature or magazines. / Program: Bibliotekarie

Censur på barnavdelningen : Likheter och skillnader mellan småbarnsföräldrars och barnbibliotekariers syn på censur / Censorship in children’s library : The differences and similarities between the opinion of librarians and parentsPersson, Cecilia, Carlsson, Rebecca January 2015 (has links)
The aim of this bachelor’s thesis is to examine parents’ and librarians’ views on censorship in children’s library. Similarities and differences between the opinion of librarians, and parents with children in the age of 0 to 12 years, have been examined. To analyse the result Jürgen Habermas’ theory of lifeworld and system has been used, together with research, mostly from USA, about censorship of children’s library. There is not much research available on censorship at children's libraries in Sweden, instead newspaper articles on controversial children's literature have been used in this paper to shed light upon the current Swedish views on censorship in children's libraries. Qualitative interviews with two librarians, working in the children’s library, and two parents, with children who visit the children's library regularly, were made. In summary, the research shows that there are actually not many differences in opinion of censorship in children’s library between the parents and librarians. A new question arises: why do we have a discussion in media about censorship of children’s library, when the respondents of this research think the controversial books should not be moved. And is it coincidental that all our respondents shared the same view on censorship of children's literature, or is it the common opinion among children's librarians and parents of younger children in Sweden?
