Solution 1: If you do “double tap” in the middle of the contents then it will occupy the screen properly by itself. This works on an android phone as well as on an iPhone. Below is given the screenshot of the mobile after you do a "double tap" one after another quickly. You can see in this screenshot that there is no background and font size problem, and the contents are very much readable.

Solution 1: Open Librarianship Studies blog in the browser. Locate the "Zoom" option which is at the top right side of the browser. You can reach here (Zoom) by clicking on the three dots ... placed on the top right side of the browser. Then increase the "Zoom" from 100 to 150. Now resize your browser by squeezing from the left and right side, so that the blog article's contents occupy full space and left and right columns are not visible. Then open some tool like Microsoft Word in the background or any other program having a "white background". Now put your browser window above the "white background"
It will be better if you can set your MS Word (or any other) program in such a way that you get maximum "white background." Now you get a conveniently readable screen as below.
