The Future of reading: a public value project [Recurs electrònic] : report of finding / prepared for Arts Council England by Creative Research
Detalles de publicación: London : Creative Research, 2009Recursos en línea: Resumen: It will also be a vision, setting out shared aspirations for the future of reading and galvanising a wide range of individuals and organisations, particularly libraries, to help make that vision a reality. In particular, the programme will inform the Government’s current Library Service Modernisation Review which seeks to define the Government’s vision for a modern, world-class public library service. The overall aims of the research were to: • Understand how members of the public perceive, experience and value reading and whether they see it as a creative activity • Explore perceptions of and attitudes towards reading among non-readers, and understand the barriers to greater engagement • Enable members of the public to help develop a vision for the future role of reading in society • Generate ideas as to how the Arts Council, the MLA, The Reading Agency, libraries and other organisations can make that vision a reality. To achieve these aims the Arts Council expected the research to address the following specific questions: • How do people understand their experience of reading, and the role it plays in their lives? Is reading perceived as a creative activity? If so, to what extent, and how do people understand the creative process taking place when they read? • Is reading valued as both an individual and social experience? How are the individual and social elements of the experience different, and how do they relate? • What are the perceptions of reading among non-readers? What factors or life experiences influence feelings and decisions about reading? What are the barriers to engagement with reading as a creative activity? What might need to be different for more people to enjoy reading as a creative activity? • What role could ‘creative reading’ play in the future, both for individuals and for society more broadly? How might this be shaped by new technologies? • What role, if any, do people see for national and local government in promoting reading as a creative activity? • What do people think the vision and priorities and commitments should be for agencies to work together to promote reading? • What could individuals and organisations, particularly libraries, do to help meet public aspirations for reading?
