The Northumbria Skills Podcast is produced by the Skills Development Team at Northumbria University Library to offer support and advice with learning skills.
In this episode, R is for Reading, we look at different reading strategies. Whether you are skimming through social media, lingering over a letter from a loved one, or critically analysing a 6-inch-thick Russian novel, making a conscious decision to read a text in a certain way can not only help speed up your academic research but also improve your academic writing.
Friendly librarian reminder: if you are making notes as part of your reading please don’t write on library books not even in pencil. Post-it notes are great, as is writing on photocopies, but not directly on the books please. Thank you.
