Bibliotekariestudenter : informationsnissar eller kultursnubbar : vem söker till bibliotekarieutbildningarna i Lund, Umeå, och varför? / Students at the programs of library studies : information freaks or culture snobs : who is applying for the programs of library studies in Lund and Umeå, and why?

This thesis will portray the different types of students at the programs of library studiesin Lund and Umeå.The study is based upon quantitative information gathered from a survey, which wasdistributed to first-year students in Lund and Umeå. The survey was followed by qualitativeinterviews with four students, and with the director of studies from each school.The study shows that the programs, as we11 as the students, are very similar, althoughthere are some minor differences. It seemed that the students at Umeå were moreinterested in culture than those at Lund.A certain connection between the aim at information and the ownership of a computercould be detected. The sex of the students played a major part in their choice of education.The attractors and facilitators, used by Lortie in his study, could also be appliedto the students at the program of library studies in our thesis.
