Abstract | Purpose: Digital reading is an important research topic in contemporary information science research. This paper aims to provide a snapshot of major studies on digital reading over the past few years. Design/methodology/approach: This paper begins by introducing the background in digital reading, then outlines major research findings. Findings: The paper demonstrates the growth of interest in information science and other disciplines in digital reading behavior. Five areas are highlighted: Digital reading behavior, print vs. digital, preference for reading medium, multi-tasking and learning, and technological advancement and traditional attachment. Research limitations: Only major studies in the North American and European countries are covered. Practical implications: Understanding reading behavior in the digital environment would help develop more effective reading devices and empower readers in the online environment. Originality/value: The paper represents a first attempt to compare, evaluate, and synthesize recent studies on digital reading. Implications for the changes in reading behavior are discussed, and directions for future research are suggested.
