Abstract
ABSTRACT Are we becoming an aliterate society? The demand for recreational reading appears to be on the decline while the demand for films, DVDs, and other formats is on the rise. Is this an indicator that students of today are selecting viewing over reading? What, if any, is the impact on collection development of academic libraries? To answer these questions, the authors administered a survey to determine if students elect to read when given choices or if they prefer viewing instead. The survey also dealt with the amount of time students spend reading as well as what specifically they read. doi:10.1300/J106v14n03_02
