5.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
5Reading Ahead Research Findings Executive Summary 1. Books are more than just pages with words and pictures; they are imbued with personal history, future aspirations, and signifiers of identity 2. The unabridged reading experience includes crucial events that take place before and after the elemental moments of eyes-looking-at-words 3. Digital reading privileges access to content while neglecting other essential aspects of this complete reading experience 4. There are opportunities to enhance digital reading by replicating, referencing, and replacing social (and other) aspects of traditional book reading

11Reading Ahead Research Findings Project Overview • Objective: Explore the evolution of reading and books and develop product, service, and business opportunities • Recruited 6 active readers (3 books, 3 Kindle) in the San Francisco Bay Area • Photo-diaries: self-documentation of reading and environments • In-depth contextual interviews (with participatory design component) • Synthesis into findings, recommendations, and opportunities (this document!) • Ongoing: dialog with different audiences
12.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
12Reading Ahead Research Findings Lead User Sampling • Our sample is not representative of the general population – Fewer than half of Americans regularly read literature (NEA, 2004) – How many read as avidly as our sample? – 400,000 Kindles sold (TechCrunch estimate) • This isn’t a statistically valid quantitative study; it’s a contextual exploration to uncover the issues, which lead users are especially articulate about • Market sizing question: what is the shape of the general population? 0 many 0 many Disinterested Enthusiast Disinterested Enthusiast

15Reading Ahead Research Findings Tracy • Tracy is a stay-at-home mom and part-time massage therapist, and is going back to school in the fall to get an MA in Occupational Therapy • Reading is a big part of her family’s life. She reads every night with her two sons (including a two-hour Harry Potter session the night before), and told us she does different voices for each character in the stories • In addition to a regular set of reading rituals with the kids, Tracy reads on her own, which she describes as “My way of getting completely unplugged”

http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
44Reading Ahead Research Findings The book reading experience Post-readingPre-reading Reading Memories Sensory Kinesthetic Sharing
45.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
45Reading Ahead Research Findings Books are sensory • Distinct sensory qualities—texture, weight, etc.—vary between books, making each interaction a unique experience • Jeff: “I used to love the smell of books— it’s a really weird thing to say, but…there’s probably some aspect from my childhood”
46.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
46Reading Ahead Research Findings Reading (books) is kinesthetic • Reading is typically a relatively quiet activity, but with an important kinesthetic element • Several people described the significance of turning pages – A relaxing gesture – An innate part of taking in information and moving forward – Erica: “Even just the act of physically turning the page and interacting with it…helps me decompress”
47.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
47Reading Ahead Research Findings Books are easily shared • They can be passed along to others – Borrowing and lending (friends or library) – Give away to friends – Donated – Sold
48.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
48Reading Ahead Research Findings There are many ways to use a book Focused reading Non- reading Book interactions Focused on content, experience of reading, or both • Purposefully seeking specific information • “Auditioning” a book • Comparing information on non-sequential pages • Using a book for reference Books can be • Decorative objects • Objects of inspiration • Markers of identity • Signaling intention They can serve these functions without being read
49.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
49Reading Ahead Research Findings Books are significant objects • The physicality of books gives them unique attributes – Erica: “In a way, I almost love books more than reading” • There are elements of craftsmanship – Binding – Typography – Pictures and illustrations – Quality of paper, printing, etc. • They can be objects of art – Signed copies – Galley proofs – Antiquarian books Erica displays books on her wall
50.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
50Reading Ahead Research Findings Books carry memories • Marks of age and use (i.e., annotations) record personal experience – A favorite “dog-eared” paperback – An inscribed book given as a gift – A book from a previous time in one’s life This book on Thanksgiving has been in Tracy’s family for several generations

http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
51Reading Ahead Research Findings Books are objects of ritual • Books become props in personal and public rituals Weekly library visits and living room reading sessions are family rituals for Tracy and her sons On Bloomsday in Dublin, fans of James Joyce relive the events of his novel, Ulysses
52.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
52Reading Ahead Research Findings Books express aspirations • We buy books we’d like to read but will probably never get to. These books represent vicarious experiences, expressing what we’d like to do and who we’d like to be
53.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
53Reading Ahead Research Findings Books are casual and simple • They are durable and relatively inexpensive • Each book is a separate object • They can be left around the house, tried out with minimal investment, and given away or traded Books intermingle with food in Erica’s kitchen cabinetsTracy’s current bathroom books
54.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
54Reading Ahead Research Findings Books enable unplugging • For some people books are a refuge: a way to unplug and get away from the ubiquity of computers, screens, and digital information • In contrast to the scanning and multi-tasking typical of computer use, books afford a slower, more focused experience • Erica: “I have a very hard time reading…sustaining it without doing something else. It’s a problem I recognize and have been trying to break. I could be sitting on the couch and feel this need to check my email” Erica’s bedside table
55.
55 The Kindle
56.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
56Reading Ahead Research Findings How Kindle affects reading New behaviors • Kindle introduces the idea of carrying around a “library” – Never run out of content – “Real books” vs. “Kindles” – “Publish” to the Kindle Old behaviors • Kindle supports solitary reading (with different sensory and kinesthetic aspects from print reading) Old behaviors not enabled? • Kindle does not easily support sharing • Not the medium of choice for those who are not “digital natives”
57.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
57Reading Ahead Research Findings Kindle vs. printed books • For those who have been using PDAs or an iPhone for reading, the Kindle is an improvement • Julie sees reading a printed book and reading on the Kindle as “the same experience” • Jeff: “If I have a book that I really like, it has exactly the exact same experience—I just get lost in the content—but I’ve always been like that” Julie relaxes on the couch with her Kindle
58.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
58Reading Ahead Research Findings Digital devices don’t afford unplugging • For readers like Tracy and Erica, who use reading to unplug/disconnect, digital reading devices like the Kindle may signify computer, not book • Computers, with their speed and hyper-connectedness, are in opposition to the desired reading experience • Erica: “Computer lifestyle has seeped into my world so deep that my attention span is the attention span of a gnat” Tracy unplugs with some bedtime reading
59.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
59Reading Ahead Research Findings Kindle challenges existing navigation behaviors • It is difficult to go between non- sequential pages on the Kindle, or to go directly to a desired spot (unless one has thought ahead and bookmarked it) • Books easily enable flipping back and forth, comparing non-sequential pages, using several books at once, etc. • Chris: “It’s a lot easier for me to, actually, to read (a book), and I think that’s maybe because I do jump around a little bit ” Chris prefers the flexible navigation with books
60.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
60Reading Ahead Research Findings Kindle provides a different sensory experience • The Kindle works very well on a functional level, but some of the more nuanced aspects of the reading experience are not carried over • Pressing a button (on the Kindle) is different from turning the pages of a printed book • Peter: “Even though the text on this Kindle is great…it’s easy on the eyes, there’s a difference…when you’re reading paper—the whiteness of the paper, the black text—there’s something about that you just can’t capture”
61.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
61Reading Ahead Research Findings Easy content acquisition is key • One of the standout features of the Kindle is the ability to instantly get more content • Jeff: “It’s super-addic…super easy to order stuff, and so by reducing the barrier to purchase, I buy all kinds of stuff… …I was listening to NPR, and Michael Pollan was on and they mentioned his book…I was at a stoplight, I bought the book before the light turned green…”
62.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
62Reading Ahead Research Findings Social aspects of reading are not well-supported • People purchase differently if they are planning on sharing • Julie: “If it’s an author we both like, then I’ll buy the regular book. So we both have access to the book” • Peter: “I came to this job where there were a bunch of people passing books around and I realized I had nothing to contribute… …and I realized, oh, this is so much fun, to read a book and then pass it back and talk about it with other people. I think that’s part of the experience”
63.
63 Going Digital
64.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
64Reading Ahead Research Findings The Gold Standard • As new technologies emerge, people are willing to give up certain things in exchange for convenience, price, or to meet a social standard • The previous technology may still be seen as “the best” – the Gold Standard – but people’s everyday behaviors reflect the new option – LPs are better than CDs (or MP3s) for gazing at the cover art – CDs have more accurate reproduction than MP3s – Yet, industry experts predict sales of digital music files will equal CD sales by the end of 2010 • Will it be the same for books? – Bookstores are best for an exploratory, immersive browsing experience, yet online shopping has hurt both chain and independent brick-and-mortar book retail – Will the convenience of carrying 100 books on our digital reader ameliorate the loss of the sensory pleasures of paper? – As people grow up with digital books, will people adapt more naturally to the differences from printed books, and make choices accordingly?
65.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
65Reading Ahead Research Findings Guiding the transition • Companies can help consumers make a transition to digital by seeking ways to mitigate what might be lost, offering increased benefits, and helping to make new behaviors attractive and pleasurable Apple emphasized tangible benefits (capacity) and emotional benefits (the inner listening experience)
66.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
66Reading Ahead Research Findings The digital reading experience • Digital readers let people carry far more reading material than physically possible with printed books • Readers can effortlessly acquire new content anytime and almost anywhere • Currently not providing readers with as rich a total experience as books
67.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting

68.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
68Reading Ahead Research Findings Books and digital can coexist • Both the book reading and the digital reader experience have a place in our lives Jeff: I don’t think this thing (Kindle) replaces my paper books, and I’ll certainly still, if I’m at a bookstore and I see a really beautiful book… I’ll buy it”
69.
69 Looking Forward
70.
http://www.portigal.com/series/reading-ahead©2009 Portigal Consulting
70Reading Ahead Research Findings Has the book been fully explored? Book designers have used dozens of techniques to support navigation or other aspects of the experience, yet most books do not make use of those techniques • Chris: “There’s a lot more that can be done with this format. I don’t think it has to go to computers for these authors to be more creative. They could take what’s good about books already…” Timothy McSweeney's Quarterly Concern experiments with new approaches to typography, layout, binding in each issue
