The Library has a broad selection of books specifically formatted to assist dyslexic readers. These books have unique fonts especially created to make reading easier, and are usually around or under 100 pages in length. Additionally, the spacing and layout of the text, as well as the weight of the paper (with a slight tint) has been produced to reduce visual stress. The dyslexia-friendly books in our Library (or those preferred for challenged readers) have a blue 'Quick Reads' sticker on the spine. They can also be found via our online catalogue in Destiny Discover, under the subject heading 'Quick Reads'. 

eBooks and Audiobooks are also great for our dyslexic or challenged readers. St Pat's offers ePlatform by Wheelers app, free for all students, and downloadable to any device. Once borrowed,  eBook settings can be changed to support dyslexic readers - such as changing the font to a clean, sans-serif font such as Arial or Gothic, increasing font size, changing the letter or word spacing, and choosing a tinted coloured background.  As always, the Library team is available for assistance.
