The aim of this thesis is to explore how some public libraries in different parts of Sweden plan to work with the the Swedish national minorities and their languages: the indigenous Sami’s and the Sami languages; the Swedish Finns and the Finnish language; the Tornedalers and the Meänkieli speaking (Tornedalen Finnisch-speaking); the Roma and the Romany Chib; and the Jews and Yiddisch. As minorities they share tragic experiences with many other minorities in the world, and some of them more than other. They all have special rights according to the Library act in Sweden and other acts. The Swedish authorities have a mission to try to save and revitalize the threatened languages and the libraries are an important part in this. The thesis examines 46 applications from libraries to the Swedish Arts Council within the framework of the government grant called Strengthened Libraries. The theoretical and methodological point of departure is the WPR-approach (What’s the problem represented to be) formulated by Carol Bacchi. The source material, the applications, is studied with qualitative content analysis.
