The more relevant results are that 75 % of the university students, read in their free time; they spend less than two hours a week reading; two thirds go to libraries, more to study than for loans or to consult books; reading on paper is still preferred; women read more than men; postgraduate students read more than those still studying their degree; Humanities students read more than Science students, and that within fiction, mystery and adventure genres are the most demanded.
