Sacred texts are the most widely consumed reading material among Indonesians over the age of five. At least 66.3% of the population, across various backgrounds including region, gender, age group, and disability status, read sacred texts more than any other type of reading material.

Following sacred texts, school textbooks are the most widely consumed reading material, particularly among the 5-18 age group. At least 25.7% of the population over five years old consumes them.

According to 2017 research by the National Library, Indonesian reading habits are relatively low. Indonesians spend only 3-4 days a week reading, with a duration of 30-59 minutes per day. Overall, the number of books completed per year ranges from 5-9 copies.
