Thank you for the many responses I had to my post requesting examples of how public libraries provide services for people with dyslexia. There are some examples of really great work out there and if anyone would like me to forward them a compilation of the reponses please email me off-list.
The examples were presented at the last Share the Vision (STV) board meeting which was attended by a representative from Dyslexia Action. Board members recommended that Dyslexia Action makes links with SCL and with ASCEL. As STV's remit is to support people with print disabilities, it was agreed that it should take more interest in this area informed by relevant experts.
