Abstract: In the era of new media, people's lifestyle, education and the like are inseparable from the Internet. At the same time, due to the emergence of smart devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers, people's reading habits have changed. Fragmented reading has become an important form of reading for college students. College students themselves have the strong ability to accept change, so fragmented reading has gradually become an important form of student learning. This paper mainly analyses fragmented reading by college students and its impact on society in the era of new media.

This paper reports a diary-based qualitative study on college students’ reading habits with regard to print and electronic media. Students used a form to record information about their reading practices for twelve days, including length of reading event, location, format used, and the purpose of reading. Students tended to use print for academic and long-form reading and to engage with it more deeply. Although electronic resources were sometimes used for academic purposes, students often used them for shorter and nonacademic reading. Students found electronic media convenient, but most of them did not wish to switch to electronic media for their academic reading.
