The survey found that a lot more needs to be done if we are to achieve significant literacy levels.</p><p><br></p><p>This pre-recorded virtual presentation was featured on the last day of the National Reading Summit. More details on the research is available in a peer reviewed article that was published on 27 May 2021 in Vol. 38 No.1 of <i>Mousaion: </i>The South African Journal of Information Studies.</p>
