Frequently Asked Questions:

I have searched for a well known reader/ author/ title in RED, but the only results that appear are for the UK RED database - why are there no results for the other countries?

RED was launched very recently, in February 2011. Although the UK RED project has been up and running for several years, other nations have only begun to collect data very recently and it will take some time for their collections to develop. To find out more about the data being collected at the national level, please go to the relevant national website by clicking on the logo on the left hand side of the page.

I have clicked on a RED partner logo, but they don't seem to have a database?

The template and database structure for national REDs connected to the Reading Experience Database (RED) was only delivered to partners at the beginning of 2011. Tweaks based on national pecularities need to be made to the data structure for each country before their databases can be officially launched. This means that some national REDs will come on stream before others. Please bear with us during this process, and we thank you in advance for your patience.
