“…With regard to the shared interest of a group, this study is no different from earlier studies (i.e. Lee and Suzuki, 2020;Lyons, 2020;Xie et al, 2021), in that they all report that in a VCoP, information sharing and seeking relate much more with the shared interest of the group. With this finding, this study confirms studies like Cansoy (2017), McIntyre and Sobel (2019) and Dodds (2019) as they found that much of the information that are shared and sought for relate to the career and the institutional work of the group.…”

The study examines the information exchange activities among librarians when communicating in a virtual community. Specifically, the study explores the kind of information librarians seek or share in a virtual community. The study also explores how librarians react to the shared or sought-for information in a virtual community. This study was carried out on 50 librarians in community of practice on a WhatsApp platform. Netnography as a research design was used in this study. Data were analysed using thematic content analysis techniques. The findings show that librarians share information that encourage and support one another. The findings also show that librarians share and seek related information on career and institutional work, thought-provoking information and personality quotes. In reaction to the shared information, librarians peruse shared information for their authenticity. Librarians share appreciative messages in reaction to the sharing of important and educative information. In the situation of misinformation or where suspicious information is shared, librarians counter the shared information in reaction by posting messages cautioning librarians to beware of scam.

“…Alongside Mackenzie (2017, 2018, 2019), contemporary motherhood studies feature a growing body of interdisciplinary work that variously explores how members go about the business of doing motherhood in digital environments, including open-forum sites such as Mumsnet (Kinloch & Jaworska, 2021; Pedersen, 2016), Instagram and Twitter (Astudillo-Mendoza & Cifuentes-Zunino, 2022; Capdevila et al, 2022), online blogs (Coffey-Glover, 2020; Ringrow, 2020), and in more private interpersonal contexts including messaging services such as WhatsApp (Lyons, 2020). Mackenzie and Zhao (2021) highlight that one significant feature of online motherhood interactions is the (re)production of knowledge and expertise.…”

In this study, we explore motherhood as an interactionally emergent identity category that speakers construct and lay claim to in talk, and as a category that is imbued with moral expectations of how incumbents should behave. We analyse 18 child-focussed debates from British daytime television talk show, This Morning. Engaging a postfeminist framework, we use membership categorisation analysis to explore how, and to what effect, women deploy claims to motherhood. We report three main findings: (a) Speakers routinely quantify their motherhood credentials in the development of a “mother-cum-expert” identity; (b) speakers who construct motherhood in accordance with neoliberal norms of “good motherhood” habitually trump the arguments offered by other speakers, including those with professional expertise; (c) any challenge to essentialist norms of womanhood and/or motherhood become accountable matters. We conclude that whilst there is power in motherhood insomuch as it vests some women with expertise and elevates their rights to be heard on child-focussed matters, the speakers in our study nevertheless construct motherhood in a manner that (re)produces and elevates essentialised notions of gender and narrow versions of motherhood.

“…Di Jawa Timur, total pengguna internet sebesar 23,4 juta jiwa (Bayu, 2018) (Stillman, 2003), (Knapp, 1987). Dalam hal ini, perkembangan IPTEK juga memiliki pengaruh yang sangat signifikan dimana besarnya jumlah pengguna internet dan hadirnya beraneka ragam jenis media sosial seperti Instagram, WhatsApp, Line, Facebook (Lyons, 2020), snapchat, twitter, dan media sosial lainnya menyebabkan peningkatan perilaku konsumtif. Pengaruh iklan-iklan yang muncul di media sosial mempengaruhi minat masyarakat terhadap produk yang ada ditawarkan oleh iklan tersebut dan menimbulkan keinginan untuk membeli produknya.…”
