‘I read for pleasure and that is the moment I learn the most<\/em>‘
– Margaret Attwood (Nobel Prize of Literature, 2019) <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Hi, my name is Georgia and I am a Student Advisor for Library & Learning Services in Catalyst. A great Study Happy tip is taking regular breaks and doing something enjoyable! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a primary teacher in training, we are always encouraged to promote reading for pleasure in schools, but what about when you get past primary school? I loved to read throughout school, but now that I am in university, I find it hard to even think of reading something other than academic literature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Open\"Stack\"Book.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firstly, the important question! What is reading for pleasure?<\/strong> Well, this is the idea that anyone should be able to pick up a book, and not only read it but enjoy it! You don\u2019t have to be an avid reader, just somebody who enjoys letting your mind ease into a world made of words, wit and wonders.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our assignments require us to read journals, books, eBooks and\nensure that we complete referencing correctly, but sometimes you need a brain\nbreak from studying and what better way to lose the stress of reality by\ngetting lost in an atmosphere of imagination. In fact, reading not only relaxes\nyour mind but also develops vocabulary and writing skills, supporting your\nacademic assignments more than you\u2019d think. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did\nyou know that there is an amazing range of fictional literature available in Catalyst?<\/strong> A whole section,\nfrom the first floor of the library to the second, filled to the brim with\nstories to expand your reading from \u2018The Tiger Who Came to Tea\u2019 to \u2018Macbeth\u2019. These\nresources are accessible to all<\/strong>\nstudents to loan and I would recommend having a look around and discovering a\nbook for you. You may be searching for a book for your children, your class or\nyourself, and you don\u2019t have to be a teaching student to appreciate a good\nbook!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re\ninterested in sharing your favourite books with others and being introduced to\nnew stories, then make sure you get involved in the Edge Hill Book Hunt<\/strong>. This scheme allows students and staff to leave\nbooks around campus for others to find, read and love. All you have to do is\nhide a book and then find a book! Make sure you post your found book on twitter\nwith #EHUBookHunt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
