LGBTQ+ and school library : School library staffs work with LGBTQ+ on primary schools (English)
Abstract [en]

This study examines how school library staff at Swedish school libraries work with and include LGBTQ + in their work. The study examines how the LGBTQ + perspective is included in different areas of the school library and how such inclusive work benefits school libraries and it’s students. Previous research highlights the need for detailed governing documents for school libraries and their staff so that the library can be improved and adapted to the students. A web survey consisting of 16 questions was sent out and answered by 186 people with responsibility for school libraries in Swedish primary and lower secondary schools. The results of the survey were analyzed with a teorethic framework made by Valsdóttir (2021) and the result was compiled to create an overall picture of the library staff's work with LGBTQ +. The study concludes that the perspective is included to some extent in the library work, but there is a big difference in how and if it is carried out between the different school libraries. The results also show a need for regulations on school libraries in general for a functioning school library to be able to exist and benefit students in Swedish schools.
