Abstract

The act of reading affects people in individual and social life. The purpose of this research is the evaluation of student opinions to develop reader culture in universities. Research data were collected through a semi-structured interview form developed by the researchers. Participants in this research included 60 students studying at various universities in Kazakhstan in the 2021-2022 academic year. It has been concluded that the reading habits of the university students participating in the research are at a moderate level, the students do not see themselves as highly qualified readers, and the reading habits of female students are relatively higher than male students. While the type of poetry is mostly preferred by female students, a small portion of male students stated that they read comics. Based on the research findings, it has emerged that universities should organize activities to increase students' reading culture.
