Notice Title

Evidence Review: Reader Development and Book- Buying Habits

Notice Description

Arts Council England is committed to improving reader development nationally through its investment. This should be undertaken based on the appraisal of recent practices and their relative levels of success.

In order to best guide decision-making, the Arts Council would like to consolidate its understanding of the current findings, in order to: 1. Assemble a body of consistent, robust and nationwide evidence that enables the organisation to push forward with demonstrably successful approaches to reader development and influence reading for pleasure habits amongst the public. 2.
