The ways of reading literary texts were also influenced, because if reading until the 1980s took place through the printed book, newspapers and magazines, nowadays there is a growing preference for reading through digital devices such as computers, tablets or smartphones. Technological artifacts not only changed the ways of reading and writing, but also made it possible for people who were far from libraries, bookstores or magazine stands to discover reading. With the mobility promoted by cyberspace, literary production in digital media has gained strength and vitality, at the same time that printed texts are migrating to the virtual environment.
