Traditionally, someone is said to be an adult when they have met certain milestones like moving out of their parents' household, finishing education, beginning full-time work, marrying, and having children. But these milestones are harder to achieve nowadays, and some people might not even aspire to achieve them. Even more, we don't know much about how people in non-Western settings feel about these definitions of adulthood. While marriage is usually still a culturally important milestone, it is becoming delayed and harder to achieve. In my research, I want to find out how young people who just got married/will soon marry understand "adulthood." I focus Jakarta, Indonesia, the second largest city in the world, where tough economic times and a globalized culture meets strong traditions and religious values.

The purpose of this study is to investigate and address a critical issue within public libraries in the United States: the environmental impact of book waste disposal. With the growing global concern for sustainability and environmental conservation, it is imperative to assess and mitigate the significant contribution of public libraries to landfill waste, particularly in the form of discarded books. By quantifying the amount of book waste generated by libraries and examining the existing disposal methods, this research aims to shed light on the extent of the problem and identify sustainable solutions. Additionally, the study seeks to understand librarians' attitudes, knowledge, and barriers related to book waste reduction. Through surveys and interviews, this research strives to provide actionable insights that can inform decision-makers in libraries and contribute to the development of environmentally responsible practices in the field. Ultimately, the study's purpose is to promote sustainability and reduce our carbon footprint.
