“1 + N” Reading Plan: Reading Literacy Education and Exploration

“1 + N” 
reading plan refers to the situation that students can get 2 credits for grade 
point in the first class upon the completion of reading tasks of different 
types and difficulties in the process of independent reading and participation 
in reading promotion activities. The target group of the project is students 
who lack the willingness to read, rarely use library resources and services but 
want to improve their reading ability. Credits are both the guarantee and 
reward of project implementation, and the orderly development and effective 
integration of reading promotion activities are the main parts of project 
implementation. The essence of the innovation of “1 + N” reading plan lies in 
that of the library concept of education through service, and is the profound 
thinking about library services for undergraduate teaching.


Introduction
The international organization for economic cooperation and development (OECD) regards the proportion of students who have reached the highest level of proficiency in reading as the basis of a country's future competitiveness, and emphasizes that reading literacy is a core that all students need to succeed in education, work and life in the future. Reading literacy has become a key indicator of a country's soft power (Yu et al., 2017). In this international environment, some universities in China have begun to promote the reading credit system, such as general education such as reading and appreciation, introduction to classic works, in the library of Southwest Jiaotong University (Liu et al., 2018), and credits for listening to lectures in Shenyang Normal University (Wang et al., 2016). For college students, the meaning of reading not only limited to increase the reading quantity of mother tongue, improve the ability of language use and understanding in the stage of primary and secondary schools, but also to form a new requirement along with professional learning and career orientation, it is constantly reading cognition, evaluation, reflection in the process of reading content, and on this basis, construct and broaden their knowledge system. The students' reading atmosphere was positively correlated with the school education quality relationship (He, 2017). By participating in reading promotion activities, college students can stimulate their interest in reading, improve their cultural attainments and increase their knowledge reserves.
Based on the in-depth study of reading literacy education and reading promotion, the library of Heilongjiang Bayi Agricultural University planned and implemented the characteristic project of "1 + N" reading plan, which made a bold attempt in the practice of reading promotion and received good results. In 2018, this project won the second prize in the first reading promotion case competition of Heilongjiang province, and was recommended by the Library and Information committee of Heilongjiang universities to promote it in the whole province. This paper will make a detailed analysis of this project for reference.

"1" in the project, indicates that students read and submit reading notes, reading experiences and book reviews by themselves; "N" in the project is to participate in a certain amount of reading promotion activities; Use "reading growth record" to describe the process and purpose of "1 + N" reading plan.
