Joint National Readership Survey

Since 1989, Millward Brown Lansdowne has been the contractor for the National Readership Survey in Ireland - the JNRS (Joint National Readership Survey).

Interviewing for the survey is conducted continuously throughout the year. One of the very few probability/random sample surveys in Ireland, it is currently based on a net effective sample of 7,000+ interviews per annum.

The survey is undertaken on behalf of a consortium of Irish publishers, the Association of Advertisers in Ireland (AAI) and the Institute of Advertising Practitioners in Ireland (IAPI). It is the authoritative industry basis for buying and selling advertising space in Irish newspapers and magazines.
