The Australia Reads Research Review provides an audit of recent reading research undertaken in Australia and overseas.
The project seeks to find, collate, synthesise, and make this information more accessible to the wider books and reading sector in Australia.
Our goals have been to understand:
- What relevant research on reading is currently out there?
- What is this research telling us about contemporary reading engagement?
- What’s missing from the reading research landscape in Australia – what might we need to research further?
- How can we use this information to help the industry reach new and existing readers?
The Research Review collates research from over 2,913 pages from 134 research articles and reports, conducted by 314 researchers in 22 countries across the world to provide insights into the benefits of reading, as well as reader behaviours and trends.
