Abstract
In this article, we study the new landscape linked to reading in the Tunisian academic environment through a survey carried out in the period from September 2007 to February 2008 among 307 Tunisian teachers and student researchers working in the five universities of Greater Tunis. . These five universities bring together most of the Tunisian teacher-researchers and postgraduate students and bring together the three main families of scientific disciplines, namely hard, soft and applied sciences. In a first section, we identify writings on the relationship between gender and the use of ICT, web 2.0, science and scientific research, as well as the evolution of these relationships in recent years. The second section presents the research methodology and reports the results of the survey among Tunisian researchers regarding the impact of gender and discipline variables on digital reading practices and the use of web 2.0.
