That's a modern affectation outside of some monasteries. I'll bet the 
daily office was simply said until relatively recently. And I'll bet the 
ability to lead plainchant is not part of the lay reader curricula 
anywhere, it's probably up to the whims of the precenter (clergy or lay).

I realize that some A-C parishes adopted what they saw as traditional 
Roman practice in the 50s or 60s, which was even limited in RC parishes <g>.
