Frizon för ungdomar? : En studie av ett ungdomsrum på folkbibliotek / A Free zone for young people? : A study of a room in the public library for young people

This Master’s thesis concerns the question why a public library establishes a special room for young people and how the young people can influence the activities. I have made interviews with two librarians and four teenagers from a reference group. I have also made an observation of the room. The most important theories are Pierre Bourdieu’stheory of symbolic capital and Mats Lieberg’s theory of free zones. The method used is a qualitative study. The answersfrom the interviews are analysed according to different categories. The results show that young people have a special taste which is shown in the room for young people and that efforts to make young people involved in the planning of activities are very important. / Uppsatsnivå: D
