The main aim of this master thesis was to see the process of an interactive online reference service from idea to final product. The reference service we have studied is developed and used by the Library of the National Institute for Working Life in Stockholm, Sweden and goes by the name phibi. Our goal was to review the whole realization process from the reasons why a service like this was created, how the service was introduced and implemented inside the organisation and finally what the result and consequences were for both the library staff and for the users of the service. Phibi is designed to be a tool that fosters communication between the library staff and the remote users where the users get the opportunity to be helped with their questions by the library staff although they are not physically present in the library. To understand the process we conducted a case study with 11 interviews of the library staff, the superior and the initiator to phibi.

Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur publikmedverkan förändrats i public service-radion i och med digitaliseringen. Publikmedverkan ska undersökas ur flera aspekter men med ett särskilt fokus på nya medieformer.Teori: Då en enskild relevant teori saknas för området publikmedverkan inom public service-radion har tidigare forskning från flera närliggande områden sammanställts i en för uppsatsens syfte unik analysmodell. Denna modell konceptualiserar infrastrukturen för publikmedverkan i public service-radion. Den beskriver hur den tekniska utvecklingen och public service-uppdraget påverkar publikmedverkan och att det främst är nya medier som används för publikmedverkan.Metod: Uppsatsens empiriska undersökning består av en kvantitativ innehållsanalys som mäter utrymmet för publikmedverkan (mängd publikgenererat innehåll i sändning och antal uppmaningar till publikmedverkan) samt vilka medieformer som används för publikmedverkan vid två tillfällen. Undersökningen består av 20 sändningstimmar 1995 och 20 sändningstimmar 2010, jämnt fördelade mellan radiokanalerna P1 och P3.Resultat: Den empiriska undersökningen visar att utrymmet för publikmedverkan har ökat i och med digitaliseringen.

Syftet är att genom ett Service Management-perspektiv studera huruvida implementeringar av Lean Thinking i serviceorganisationer skapar möjligheter för ökat värdeskapande för såväl kund som organisation. Huvudfrågeställningen ser ut som följande: Hur påverkas värdeskapandet i serviceorganisationer vid en implementering av Lean Thinking? Vi har betraktat två skilda serviceorganisationer som implementerat Lean Thinking - Fritidsresor och Universitetssjukhuset i Lund - genom en kvalitativ forskningsmetod. Semi-strukturerade intervjuer har genomförts med intervjupersoner från respektive studieobjekt. Genom en litteratusstudie av Service Management- och Lean Thinking-teorier har såväl likheter som skillnader i perspektivens syn på värde och värdeskapande illustrerats.

This quantitative study explores how employee perceived efficiency within customer service is affected by standardized routines, digital tools, and motivational factors. The study is based on survey data collected from 42 employees across five customer service departments in a larger organization. The theoretical foundation integrates Weber?s bureaucracy theory, the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and the Job Characteristics Model (JCM), allowing for a multidimensional analysis to capture the employees' experiences of efficiency. Findings reveal a statistically significant positive relationship between perceived efficiency and both standardized routines and perceived digital tool usefulness and ease of use. Furthermore, the study identifies that skill variety and task significance are positively correlated with experienced meaningfulness, which indicates a potential mediating relationship between these motivational aspects and perceived efficiency.

The aim of this report is to create an easily accessible guide to basic hygiene, cleaning and disinfection within the small animal practice. It is based on a literature study, using mainly research from the public health sector, due to the lack of relevant scientific reports within the veterinary field. To prevent the spread of infectious diseases it is important that the staff understands the importance of basic hygiene. Hand hygiene and disinfection and cleaning with water and detergent combined are the most important routines to prevent spreading of disease. In conclusion the differences between the veterinary and the public health sector are small, but some basic differences exist due to the nature of the patient?s needs.
