What does ClaroRead do?

ClaroRead Pro offers reading and writing support for people with dyslexia.

It can read as you type, and do phonetic spell checking and word prediction. It will also read aloud web pages, PDF files etc.

ClaroRead is available on all PCs running the IT Services Managed Desktop.

This includes the PCs in the Information Commons, the Library and IT Services Student Computer Rooms.

ClaroRead is also available on staff PCs that are running the Managed Desktop.

Click on the Start button and select Software Center. Alternatively, click on the Software Center icon on the desktop.
