Is reading for pleasure beneficial?
Answer Miriam There are many studies and journals that you can reference and investigate in finding an answer to your question. Many of these magazines could be found in local college libraries. While I do not know your location, I would say that your closest library that is known for teaching carries these journals. What you can also likely do is log on or visit your regular local library and search “InfoTrac”, a service that most libraries pay for that will give you access to hundreds of thousands of magazines and journals that cover anything in the world, including reading. Some journals that I would suggest you investigate include the NCSALL Journal, The Journal of the International Reading Association, English Education, English in Education, English Journal, English Leadership Quarterly, English Quarterly, The Horn Book Magazine, Instructor, The Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy, Journal of Literacy Research, Reading Teacher, Reading Research Quarterly, Reading Improvement
