Abstract
(type = abstract)
Serious leisure studies in Library and Information Science have focused on the educational and work contexts to the detriment of leisure contexts (Stebbins, 2009). The metatheoretical position to support this view is based in social constructivism (Taljia, Tuominen, & Savolainen, 2005). A synthesis of key claims in serious leisure research is used to create the base knowledge of the serious leisure community. By identifying gaps in the research at the theoretical, topic, contextual, and methodological levels, this following research seeks to address the following research problem: What can we learn about serious leisure in library and information science in the online community of basketball twitter? The proposed dissertation investigates: (1) the serious leisure practices of the basketball twitter community; (2) the positive and negative impacts of the serious leisure information practices in the community; and (3) how, if at all, do these information practices shape the power structure of different groups in the community. Findings are examined in relation to the fields of human information behavior and practices, serious leisure, sport, and social media.
