Nutidens varuhandel uppkom under 1800-talets senare hälft. Utvecklingen har nu kommit så långt att konsumenterna genom Internet har fått en ny kanal för inköp. De traditionella köparna och säljarna använde tre kanaler för försäljning. Dessa tre kanaler är personlig försäljning, försäljning via post (postorder) och försäljning via telefon. Internet är den fjärde kanalen för försäljning.

The purpose of this master thesis is to use marketing theory on the library?s activities.

Informationsdelning är viktigt för att en organisation ska kunna uppnå god effektivitet, men i många fall delas och används inte information på det sätt som det skulle kunna göras. För att förbättra informationsdelningen har vissa företag investerat eller utvecklat IT-applikationer, men teknologin måste samverka med mänskliga och organisatoriska faktorer för att den önskade informationsdelningen ska kunna uppnås. Studiens syfte var att beskriva vilka faktorer som påverkar informationsdelningen ur ett MTO-perspektiv. För att svara på syftet genomfördes en fallstudie på ett konsultföretag som arbetar med produkt- och teknisk dokumentation och på fallföretaget utfördes 6 intervjuer med tekniska skribenter. Några av de faktorer som identifierats är att människan måste vara medveten om varför det är viktigt att dela viss typ av information, för att vilja dela och för att informationen ska hålla en bra kvalitet.

This two years master?s thesis in Library and Information Sciences aims to investigate and put the services of 118100 Svar På Allt (SPA, an SMS mobile question and answer service) and Fråga biblioteket (FB, a library operated e-mail reference service) into the context of the reference encounter. Questions sent to SPA and their subsequent answers are analysed, and part of these questions are forwarded to FB for comparative studies. Both of the formats are compared to the reference encounter as a whole. The framing of the question originates in the assumption that there may be a need for further negotiation of the questions submitted to the aforementioned formats.

Through the use of a quantitative content analysis and a dialogical approach, we have documented how many men and women who speak, how they speak, how long they have the word and the subjects they will be heard in, in the program Debatt.

Allt fler företag väljer att vara webbaserade och ägna sig helt till e-handel. Samtidigt fortsätter antalet e-handelsföretag att öka i antal kraftigt. Företagens behov av personlig information och kunddata har även ökat för att förbli konkurrenskraftiga. Vilket skapar ett problem, behovet av denna personliga information hos företagen riskerar att inkräkta på användarens personliga integritet. Tidigare forskning presenterar inte mycket angående värdet av den personliga integriteten och de fördelar ett skyddande av detta genererar.

The purpose of this study was to increase the understanding of the phenomenon that there are so many young people placed in institutions in Sweden despite the valuable knowledge regarding the problems and risks of doing so. The questions that follow in the essay were what guided the social workers to choose institutional placement for youngsters. It went on to also ask if this knowledge could contribute to an increased understanding of why there were so many young people placed in institutions despite the criticism from scientists. To accomplish the goal of the essay, former science in the subject was reported and six social workers within social services were interviewed. The material of the interviews was analyzed with help from the theory of human service organizations, street-level bureaucrats work situation and the new institutionalism.The result of the investigation showed that the social workers choices to place young people in institutions is guided by specific work and organizational factors connected with a belief in the helping function of the surroundings.

Handledning och dess effekter har tidigare belysts inom såväl utbildnings- som yrkesprofessionella sammanhang. Handledning innebär reflektion över personligt upplevda arbetsrelaterade situationer och tidigare forskning inom området har visat att handledning kan stimulera till professionell och personlig utveckling. Vid bearbetandet av reflektioner i handledningen kan Orlandos omvårdnadsteori utgöra en lämplig grund. Teorin är en interaktionsteori, vilket innebär reflektion över vad som händer i det enskilda mötet mellan sjuksköterska-patient och den grundar sig på frågor som berör upplevelse, tanke, känsla och handling. Reflektion är ett centralt begrepp även i handledningsprocessen och likartade frågor bearbetas i mötet mellan handledare-handledda och kan väckas i mötet mellan chefmedarbetare. Syftet med detta arbete var att belysa huruvida handledning kan utgöra ett redskap som stärker och utvecklar ledarskapet hos första linjens chefer.
