Hi everybody, I’m not sure if I am able to
articulate this very well yet—there are a lot of ideas swirling around in my
head—but here is the gist of what I would like to study:
I am interested in exploring the way that
adolescent girls are using the Internet for research in order to publish their
own content and/or to contribute to online communities, and social media
platforms. More specifically, I would like to explore the idea that there is a
connection between the practices of diary-keeping, scrapbooking, and
zine-making to these girls’ activity on sites such as Tumblr, Facebook, Rookie,
or even Wikipedia.
I would also like to look into the ways that
young girls are utilizing the library for these practices, whether it be
through in-person visits, online resources, workshops, or even just scanning
and photocopying of materials.
