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

Description

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.
