Reading impairment
Are you a student at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH) and have difficulty reading printed text due to a disability? If so, you may be eligible for an account in Legimus, which is the Swedish Agency for Accessible Media's catalog of adapted literature.
A disability does not automatically entitle you to a Legimus account; there must be a clear connection between the disability and the difficulty in reading printed text.
Apply for an account in Legimus
Contact the library at biblioteket@gih.se if you would like to apply for an account in Legimus.
If you have an account
If you already have an account in Legimus, all you need to do is change your library so that your account belongs to GIH. Contact Monika Janvari to move your account.
ClaroRead - Desktop Reader
ClaroRead is a program that reads aloud the text that appears on your screen. It also includes spelling correction software, mind maps and more.
All students at GIH can download ClaroRead to their own computer.
