I am a doctoral student in Library and Information Science within the national research school ReSource: Transforming Reading and Source Criticism in Digital Cultures. My doctoral project explores how Swedish public libraries address environmental issues. By focusing on three library initiatives that engage with environmental issues in distinct ways, the study explores how such efforts are shaped and perceived in relation to the societal role of libraries. I started my doctoral position in the autumn of 2023.

I have a BA in Social Anthropology from Stockholm University and a Master's degree in Library and Information Science from Uppsala University. Prior to my current doctoral studies, I worked as a librarian at the Stockholm Public Library.
