This study examines the impact of COVID-19 on postgraduate students’ reading habits and supervisor communication. An online survey was conducted among 2,298 students across different disciplines in mainland China. The results showed that after the COVID-19 outbreak, book reading remained unchanged for 75.6% of students, while 11% reported a decrease of over 30%. For paper reading, 76.7% of students reported no change, with 8.2% increasing their reading by over 60%. Supervisor communication frequency decreased significantly, with 48.7% of students maintaining the same communication level and the majority experiencing a reduction. These findings highlight the need for improved mentorship practices during pandemics and offer insights into supporting postgraduate students in disrupted learning environments.
