Do you have dyslexia or trouble reading due to concentration or learning difficulties, impaired vision or a print disability caused by disability or illness? Disorders related to memory or mental health can also make reading printed books significantly harder. The services provided by Accessibility Library Celia are for those with a print disability of any kind.

Celia’s books are available free of charge.
You can borrow books from the Celianet online service or use the Pratsam Reader application and listen to talking books on your phone, tablet or computer. You can get the username and password needed to borrow and listen to books from your library or school. Daycare centres and prisons can become community customers and offer the services of Accessibility Library Celia to their customers with print disabilities.
When you want to get something to read easily, join Celia’s free-of-charge book clubs. As an online listener, you will receive the book club books directly to your Pratsam Reader application’s bookshelf or your own loans on Celianet if you are not using the app. There are several different clubs, offering services in both Finnish and Swedish.
In addition to talking books, Celia produces and loans out Braille books and illustrated tactile books and provides advice and guidance on accessible publishing. Celia also produces textbooks for different school levels.
Celia’s newsletters provide up-to-date information and comprehensive reading tips for persons of all ages. The newsletters are available in Finnish and Swedish. Check out our range of newsletters and choose your own according to your interests!
