Between Openness and Silence: Public Librarians’ Perspectives on Serving LGBTQ+ Youth in Poland
dc.abstract.en | This study examines public librarians’ perceptions in Poland regarding the informational needs of young adult LGBTQ+ users and their access to library collections. Conducted in a socio-political context marked by conservatism and marginalization, the research employs a checklist analysis of LGBTQ+ young adult literature in library collections and interviews with librarians in south-eastern Poland. Findings highlight limited policies, inadequate librarian training, and barriers from censorship and community conservatism. While some LGBTQ+ materials are available, proactive engagement remains rare. The study emphasizes the need for inclusive practices and resources to better support marginalized youth in Polish public libraries. |
