About the Reading color outline icon
A reader's head and shoulders rise above a wide open book held in both hands, the pages fanning out left and right from a central spine. The figure is reduced to a circle for the head, so attention stays on the book itself. It suits e-learning platforms, library catalogs, school and course websites, book club apps and literacy campaign slides.
The V-shaped page block sits low and wide, balancing the round head above it, while the grips at each outer edge show the book being held open. It pairs with bookshelf, graduation cap and pencil icons; at small sizes the page edges collapse, so use 40 px or more.
This is the colour outline version of the reading icon: the same line drawing in an accent colour, useful for highlighting a state, a category or a brand tone without adding visual weight.
