Room cleanliness is a multiplier ranging from 75% - 115% (75% without a room), depending on the cleanliness of a room.

Cleanliness	Factor
-5.0	0.75
-2.5	0.85
0.0	1.00
1.0	1.15

Reading bonus is a multiplier ranging from 100% - 120% (100% without a room), depending on the number of books in bookcases in a room. It is not affected by books on the floor.

There are diminishing returns on reading bonus for the number of books:

Books	Reading Bonus Offset Per Book
1-5	+0.8%
6-10	+0.4%
11-15	+0.2%
16+	+0.1%

Books 1-5 give a total of +4%, books 6-10 a total +2, 11-15 a total +1%, and 16+ a mere +0.1% per book. To reach the maximum bonus of 120%, it would require a total of 155 books.

See Reading Bonus for further details.

Calculating Research Speed Factor

The factors for Research Speed Factor are: Research Speed Factor Base, Research Speed Factor Offset, Outdoors, Work Table Temperature, Room cleanliness, and Reading bonus. This would be written out as:

Research Speed Factor = (Research Speed Factor Base + Research Speed Factor Offset) × Outdoors × Work Table Temperature × Room cleanliness × Reading bonus

The maximum would be:

(1 + 0.1) × 1 × 1 × 1.15 × 1.2 = 1.518

For an effective limit of 151.8%.

The minimum would be:

(0.75 + 0) × 0.75 × 0.7 × 0.75 × 1 = 0.2953125

For an effective limit of 29.53125%.
