This is a collection of website addresses intended to provide candidates with more proper links where they will find relevant tasks to test their reading comprehension. Being aware of the fact that today’s STANAG 6001 reading tests are based entirely on multiple-choice questions, our choice of items in this Library are represented solely by multiple-choice items.

Candidates can select their level (from beginner - level A1 to advanced -level C1, according to CEFR), and improve their reading skills at their own speed and whenever it is convenient for them.
