Abstract:

The thought and modes of sociological study of Fourah Bay College library emanate predominantly from the sociology of communications and organisation, according to which a library is a social mechanism. The functional social function of this is to probe and form selections from the stream of engraved communications to systematise and stock the preferred publications and to form the streamed stock of publication accessible to a social public and to determine the social and cultural domination of the touch between the library and the students’ social community. The accomplishment of students in

Abstract:

This article will examine some of the deeper conversations that need to happen before a public library can fully institute a decolonization and reconciliation plan. Using mass observation as evidence, the authors argue that acts of discrimination are often mistaken as racism, when in many cases the ‘us versus them’ mentality is rooted in a perverse and often unconscious fear of poverty and of the poor. A decolonization plan cannot be fully implemented until aporophobia and to a greater extent, the confines of capitalistic society are fully understood by library staff.
