Social networks for reading as a new Literary Training Space
-
Abstract
In contrast to the generalized negative vision regarding the use of social networks, this study aims to analyze their present possibilities for the dissemination of literature and for the development of literary education. In that respect, the concepts of social reading and LIJ 2.0 are presented as a case of Internet participation dynamics related to the development of reading habits. Next, the main social reading networks whose main objective is to talk about literature are presented. The main objective of this work is to present several specific uses for the promotion of reading in common social networks such as Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and in specific reading networks such as Goodreads or the Spanish Entrelectores and Leoteca.
