The article highlights the role of reading in the intellectual and spiritual development of an individual and its influence on shaping information culture. The process of reading is interpreted as an important source for enriching human thinking, broadening worldview, and developing independent and systematic reasoning skills. Through reading, students and young people acquire a critical approach to receiving, processing, and evaluating information, while also strengthening creative thinking and problem-solving abilities. In the context of the digital society, reading serves not only as a source of knowledge but also as a tool for navigating information flows, distinguishing reliable data, and perceiving it at the level of cultural values. At the same time, reading plays a significant role in enhancing speech development, aesthetic taste, and devotion to both national and universal values.
