Australia Reads

n our Understanding Australian Readers research report, behavioural scientists at Monash University broke down the act of reading into a series of behaviours: from finding and choosing books, to actually starting and continuing to read, to reflecting and sharing after you’ve finished a book.

The results showed that while many ‘avid’ readers love the book browsing process,  more infrequent readers seemed to be getting stuck at the ‘finding books‘ and ‘choosing books’ stage. 

You can’t read a book that you haven’t found, right? 

In our latest research digest article, we look at book browsing as a barrier to reading, and provide a series of ideas and recommendations for supporting readers to find book they’ll love.
