Hi Anna! What a nice surprise to hear from you! It’s been a long time, but it’s good news that you’ve decided to do a project about people’s reading habits in various countries. I’ll give you some tips and hints about this in Spain. Let’s get to the point, I suppose the biggest change has been the digitalization of libraries and books, as well as the “colonization” of our lives by social medias. It’s to say that that people are reading faster and less concentrated that some decades ago due to the quicker rhythms of live, in parallel with the vast information available on the Internet. In other words, adults are reading eBooks while they’re on the metro or the bus just to avoid wasting time, whereas youngsters seem to be reading contents available on social media, what can be a problem is the consumption of fake-news instead of reading a great book. I’d advise you to consider in your project the risk of re-share fake news in relation to how our reading habits are changing. On another note, even if older ones might prefer the paper format, most of them also are being adapted to the latest technologies as they can get access in just one click to whatever they wish. On the whole, I feel the habit of reading a good romance or science fiction book is being lost as people prefer to read shorter things, what explains the success of files and stories on Twitter, especially for late generations. Where do you stand on this topic in New Zeland? I hope to see you soon and talk about this face to face, keep me posted! Best wishes with your project, Ariadna
Hi Anna!

What a nice surprise to hear from you! It’s been a long time,
but
it’s
good
news that you’ve decided to do a project about
people
’s
reading
habits in various countries. I’ll give you
some
tips and hints about this in Spain.

Let
’s
get
to the point, I suppose the biggest
change
has been the digitalization of libraries and books,
as well
as the “colonization” of our
lives
by social medias. It’s to say that that
people
are
reading
faster and less concentrated that
some
decades ago due to the quicker rhythms of
live
, in parallel with the vast information available on the Internet.

In other words
, adults are
reading
eBooks
while they’re on the metro or the bus
just
to avoid wasting time, whereas youngsters seem to be
reading
contents available on social media, what can be a problem is the consumption of fake-news
instead
of
reading
a great book. I’d advise you to consider in your project the
risk
of re-share fake news in relation to how our
reading
habits are changing. On another note, even if older ones might prefer the paper format, most of them
also
are
being adapted
to the latest technologies as they can
get
access in
just
one click to whatever they wish.

On the whole
, I feel the habit of
reading
a
good
romance or science fiction book is
being lost
as
people
prefer to read shorter things, what
explains
the success of files and stories on Twitter,
especially
for late generations.

Where do you stand on this topic in New
Zeland
? I hope to
see
you
soon
and talk about this face to face,
keep
me posted!

Best wishes with your project,

Ariadna
