Scaff’s research project, “The Role of Photo and Video Sharing Applications in Teens’ Processes of Creative Expression” looks to quantify how often and how teens are using these services and how librarians can use this knowledge to support digital literacy. “I hope the findings may provide some insights for librarians who work directly with young people, as well as those who design digital tools and environments for youth,” said Scaff. “The widespread use of photo and video sharing applications offers both opportunities and challenges and receiving this grant will allow me to understand how teens are approaching these tools.”
