Reading & writing difficulties

Do you have reading impairment which makes it hard to read printed material? If so, the library offers help obtaining required course readings as talking books. Everyone has the right to study at Stockholm School of Economics on equal terms. If you have any kind of reading and writing difficulties, the library offers many services that can help in your studies.

Students with reading or writing difficulties have the possibility to request course books to be recorded as talking books or adapted to Braille by MTM - The Swedish Agency of Accessible Media.

The talking books can be found in MTM's library catalog Legimus. They can be read on a smartphone, a computer or a daisy player.

Students with this need can book an appointment here. Choose the alternative "Introduction to Legimus". Please note that you need to log in with your SSE credentials.
