No, it doesn't make a lot of sense to me, either. Maybe the bigger context makes it more understandable. Or maybe the writer used the wrong expression.

Are "reading" and "correcting" gerunds or nouns? The preposition "of" suggests that both are nouns. So, why are they (or at least "reading") lacking determiner "the" in the phrase above?
----------
My understanding is that if they were gerunds, the preposition "of" would be redundant.
