Abstract

In this article, we present an overview of the results of a survey conducted with Brazilian youngsters aged 15 to 18 years old, belonging to diverse socioeconomic strata. We have identified their means of search and access to the works and the experience of digital literary reading, considering that it includes the reading of works of both digital and digitized literature. We have based our research on studies about the history of books and reading, youth literature, sociology of reading, multimodality and digital literary genres. We applied a questionnaire to 342 youngsters, a semi-open questionnaire to 68 youngsters, and followed the practices of digital literary reading of 6 young readers through semi-structured interviews. Digital search environments are diverse, but not always easily understood by young readers. For each type of digital literary reading there are specific ways of accessing the digital environments that make them available.
