Tip!

Coloured rulers and overlays may be helpful: you can use them to highlight the text as you read. You can also buy them from Erilaisten opiskelijoiden liitto (shop only in Finnish). For service in English, Dyslexia Shop in the United Kingdom is a good choice though you need to be prepared to declare your parcel.

If you want to test the tools, ask Laurea Library staff about the Reading help - Lukituki bag.
