- Research speaks of a disconnect between young adults and library culture. Young adults, despite having overall low expectations, often show dissatisfaction with library services, while librarians perceive teens as both a prioritized user group, and a problematic group of users. Ninety-two young adults participated in a focus-group study. The interviews revolved around their views on reading and public library services. Results showed that young adults’ choices to engage in reading practices are influenced by the context of the practice, the motivation for engaging in the practice and the format used.

- This article reports on an empirical study of children's librarians' activities supporting the development of literacy among very young children. The theoretical framework stems primarily from a LIS practice-theoretical perspective where literacy is viewed as corporeal practice. The empirical material consists of a transcript from one focus-group interview with seven children's librarians, and field notes from a series of seven documented observations of program sessions at three public libraries in Sweden. A qualitative content analysis was undertaken, and the empirical material was interpreted with an analytical focus on the concepts of literacy activities, embodiment, and literacy practices. The study shows how bodies act as sites of information and communication. Not only the bodies of the librarians but also the bodies of parents and the children acted as central sites, affecting literacy practices during library programs. The librarians express that their engagement in professional practice has resulted in a certain bodily sense for finding the right level of communicating with babies. The librarians have also learned to trust this embodied judgement as part of their professional expertise.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article examines Swedish literature policies since the 1970s and the construction of the literate child as expressed in policy texts. Literacy has in the last decades, in Sweden as well as in other countries, been linked to economic growth and citizenship. In these political processes, some reading practices are considered beneficial and others less beneficial or even harmful. Using Carol Bacchi’s policy analysis, this study reveals an increased interest in children’s reading practices. There has been a movement in the argumentation from identifying the lack of access to high-quality literature to emphasising lack of reading ability as the main problem. Also noticeable is that the responsibility of educating children about the virtues of reading are placed on parents in the later policy texts, whereas institutions such as school and libraries are defined as the sole reading-educators in earlier policies. The results presented in this study shed light on the changing conditions for library work.
