The Deep Reading Decline In The Digital Age

Lady of the Library explores two major challenges of the digital age: the decline of deep reading and the rise of intellectual FOMO. With constant digital stimulation and an endless stream of information, our ability to focus and truly engage with what we read is diminishing. The video delves into how the internet reshapes our brains, making it harder to sustain attention and think linearly. At the same time, the fear of missing out drives many to hoard knowledge—saving countless articles, books, and resources without ever engaging with them. This phenomenon, linked to anxiety and the illusion of knowledge, can lead to burnout and a surface-level understanding of information. Through personal experiences, academic insights, and practical strategies, this video offers solutions to retrain our brains for deep reading and break free from the cycle of information hoarding. If you’ve ever struggled to focus on a book or felt overwhelmed by your digital library, this video is for you!
