‘Print’ refers to written words and symbols that are seen and interpreted for meaning. In everyday life, print appears in books, signs, online content and in handwritten form, serving as just some of the ways we access and share information.

Print-related challenges often develop gradually and cumulatively, sometimes going unnoticed as learners progress in their literacy journey. Thoughtfully adapted print material can make a tangible difference by supporting access, engagement and skill-building for learners of all ages.

Read Book Clinic adapts and produces printed products to support a range of user-specific needs, including:

• Access to print (e.g. vision, motor/movement considerations).
• Engagement with communication partner and/or print.
• Sensory-based input (e.g. tactile).
• Alternative & Augmentative Communication (AAC), including picture or symbol-based input.
• Print exposure (for learners with low literacy or print trauma experience).
