Abstract
A reading apparatus to convey a document set on a document tray and to read an image of the conveyed document includes a control unit and a determining unit. The control unit performs lifting control for lifting the document tray in a case where a first condition is satisfied and performs lowering control for lowering the document tray in a case where a second condition is satisfied. The determining unit determines whether a predetermined period elapses after the lifting control of previous time is started. The control unit does not perform the lowering control even if the second condition is satisfied in a case where the determining unit determines that the predetermined period does not elapse.
