The purpose of this study is to contribute with knowledge about how floating collections can be distributed in different areas of a city. The focus of the study is to see how the library use that influences the floating collections is distributed across the city of Gothenburg and what consequences it may have for access to media in different locations around the city. The research questions posed are: How is the use of library collections distributed in a city with a floating collection? How does user influence shape the local collections in a floating collection? and How do librarians in Gothenburg deal with the effects of a floating collection? The empirical material is official statistics collected from libraries in Gothenburg. The statistics include the number of reservations, borrowed media and returned media from each library and also the turn over rate of the circulation. The theoretical framework that is being used is Michael K. Bucklands theory of the roles of collections. The results show that the collections are unevenly distributed in some areas, that users are more inclined to make reservations for media incertain areas and that librarians sometimes make reservations to their workplace to even out unbalances.
