If you are (or someone you know is) learning to read, learning English, or learning another language, there are a range of free resources available at the libraries. There are also titles suitable for those with dyslexia. Follow the Browse links to find the collection that will assist you, and don't forget to check out the Free online resources page as there are sites and collections available online that may also be of use.


Easy links to titles in your language

New titles are added to the language collections when they become available, so it is worth checking the links before you visit. You can place a reserve on any of the listed titles and they will be held for you to collect (for 10 days only).
