Where are the Auto Lock settings on iPad?

I need to know how can I turn off where it times out like if you don’t end and react to the screen like for 30 seconds or a minute it automatically locks it I need to know how where do I go to undo that to where it will not shut down because I read books and if I don’t touch the screen it automatically times out and goes to the lock screen how do I turn that off thank you

From iPad Settings:

Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto Lock - set as required
