Ways of reading: finding books for children

The Ways of reading leaflet is designed to help you find reading materials in accessible formats for children of all ages who are blind or partially sighted - for pleasure, for information or for school work.

The leaflet is free of charge and is a joint venture by Calibre Audio Library, ClearVision Library, National Blind Children's Society and RNIB.

It is a guide to finding reading materials in accessible formats for children who read:

  • by touch (braille, Moon, tactile images)
  • by listening (CDs, MP3, DAISY)
  • through computer (email, downloads)
  • using large print (customised print, clear and giant print)
  • many of the organisations listed can provide advice and guidance about reading; there may also be a local society for blind and partially sighted people in your area to offer support.
