Abstract
This paper describes a survey of journal readership by physiotherapists in hospital practice in England. With few exceptions, the results reveal extremely limited journal readership, though those who either had or were registered for a degree read more extensively. Using smallest space analysis, clear readership structures emerged that enabled differentiation between degree and non-degree respondents, and between what have been termed primary and secondary journal sources.Keywords
