"Their altruistic devotion" : A document study on libraries, librarians and women in working life between 1859–1913 (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syftet med studien är att med intresse för könssegregering undersöka diskurser om bibliotek, bibliotekarier ochkvinnors roll inom arbetslivet. Empirin för studien är dokument publicerade inom tidsperioden 1850-talet till 1910-talet och som berör uppsatsens teman. Dessa analyseras utifrån en diskurspsykologisk samt en kompletterandeidéanalytisk ansats för att synliggöra tolkningsrepertoarer och maktrelationer. Studiens resultat visar på två förhållningssätt till och tolkningsrepertoarer baserat på traditionella normer inom de empiriska dokumenten. Dels den upprätthållande tolkningsrepertoaren, dels den utmanande tolkningsrepertoaren. Vidare synliggjordes genussystemets och det ostabila genuskontraktets inverkan på bibliotekarieyrkets status.

Abstract [en]

The aim of the study is to, with an interest in gender segregation, examine discourses about libraries, librarians and the role of women in working life. The empirical material for the study is documents published within the time period from the 1850s to the 1910s that touch on the themes of the essay. These are analyzed based on a discourse-psychological and a complementary idea-analytical approach to make interpretation repertoires and power relations visible. The results of the study show two approaches to, and interpretation repertoires based on traditional norms within the empirical documents. Partly the maintaining interpretation repertoire, partly the challenging interpretation repertoire. Furthermore, the impact of the gender system and the unstable gender contract on the status of librarianship was made visible
