We make the documents listed below available to anyone who is interested in understanding illiteracy and who wishes to learn ways to defeat it. We are hopeful that these guides will inform the public as to the needs and problems of those with limited reading skills or reading disabilities and the impact that illiteracy has upon society. For the people that want to help spread the joys of reading, we have posters that can be downloaded for free.
