| Popis: | LGBT+ and Public Libraries Hana Bouchalová English Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to define the relations of the Czech LGBT+ community (lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans* with respect to other gender identities and sexual orientations) and Czech public libraries. Focusing on LGBT+ literature and library and information services, the thesis offers both library and LGBT+ community perspective, using following research methods: questionnaires and interviews (executed with the help of LGBT+ groups and organisations), interviews with librarians, mystery shopping and analysis of selected Czech public library collections. Theoretical chapters discussing the existence of Czech queer libraries and the situation of LGBT+ community in the Czech Republic and elsewhere are also included. Final chapter contains suggestions for libraries how to better design and improve their services and offers related topics for further discussion. |
