    Hi Ya’ll,

    I am still uncertain about the community I wish to research. A few ideas that I have in mind are prison inmates and their accessibility to information. Or Chicano mural artists and how they use information to organize resistance through art.

      @priscilla023 Both of these would work. One unique thing about the incarcerated community is the fact that most of the literature is focused on offering services to those in prison more than the usual focus of research. It is all viewed through the lens of prison libraries. For the other, you might find useful studies related to info behaviors of artists and activists.
