Hypothesis Analysis
This study, "Online book clubs for preteens and teens," was written by Cassandra Scharber, Ann Melrose, and Jody Wurl. I do feel as if the hypothesis could have been tested more properly with more data collection (a wider range of participants). The hypothesis was tested through the investigation and data collection of two online book clubs by the Hennepin County Public Library. They conducted surveys and interviews throughout the study with not only patrons, but their parents as well, which I did think was very beneficial. The results from the hypothesis concluded that if public libraries continue to implement online book clubs, they can amplify the opportunity for positive outcomes of learning in the 21st century.

"Public library online book clubs are sites of possibility – a medium through which libraries can more readily encourage literate practices in the next generations'' (Scharber et al., pg. 188).
