State-of-the-art reader pens now available at Waterford libraries

State-of-the-art reader pens now available at Waterford libraries

Waterford libraries are encouraging children and adults with reading difficulties to borrow reader pens from local branches. 

Reader pens work by scanning text and reading out the words with natural speaking voices. 

The state-of-the-art devices help improve reading skills, particularly for those with learning difficulties such as dyslexia and anyone learning English. 

The pens are available at libraries across Waterford including Ardkeen, Carrickphierish, Tramore, Lismore, Dungarvan and Central Library. 

No wifi required.
