- Abstract
- In today?s´ multicultural society increasing numbers of school librarians are faced with a relatively new target group of pupils. This group is linguistically less homogenous than previously and this requires modern adaptations of pedagogic methods.
Information literacy and reading promotion are two important topics that school librarians work with. Information literacy is essential for problem based tuition and to increase it requires a well developed language. This study is focusing of the school librarians work with reading promotions. We are interested in how the direction and structure of this work is influenced by the linguistic composition of pupils.

This group is linguistically less homogenous than previously and this requires modern adaptations of pedagogic methods.
Information literacy and reading promotion are two important topics that school librarians work with. Information literacy is essential for problem based tuition and to increase it requires a well developed language. This study is focusing of the school librarians work with reading promotions. We are interested in how the direction and structure of this work is influenced by the linguistic composition of pupils.
To gain insight about the views on multilingualism in primary schools in Skåne a questionnaire was distributed. In thirteen of the seventy schools that replied, more than fifty percent of the pupils were multilingual. These thirteen schools are situated in five of the larger municipalities of Skåne. The general view on multilingualism varies within and between municipalities and due to the poor response to the questionnaire it is not possible to make any comprehensive conclusions.
To gain a deeper insight into the work concerning reading promotion on schools with a large proportion of multilingual pupils? three school librarians were interviewed. The result shows that despite similar conditions regarding multilingual pupils the work is carried out in very different ways. The information gathered in three interviews is not sufficient to create a general picture of school librarians´ work with reading promotion. However, because of the dissimilar replies it may be perceived that the support unities present via the view of the municipalities and schools on multilingualism in conjunction with the school librarian's own ambitions and ideas is what affects their work with reading promotion.
