Storyshares and Noah Text® Partner to Enhance Literacy for Underserved Readers

In a significant move to address literacy challenges among underserved readers, Storyshares, a publisher dedicated to empowering striving readers, has partnered with Noah Text®, the innovator behind a patented text display method. This collaboration aims to make reading more accessible and enjoyable for individuals who struggle with traditional text formats, including those with dyslexia and multilingual learners.

The partnership has resulted in the conversion of 36 Storyshares books into Noah Text®'s unique format, which visually emphasizes the structure of words to aid in decoding. This method is grounded in the science of reading and has been endorsed by structured literacy specialists. The books are now available through various channels, including Noah Text®'s retail bookstore at https://noahtextbookstore.company.site/, Ingram's distribution network, and direct sales to K12 school districts. Additionally, a paperback bundle can be purchased directly from Storyshares at https://shop.storyshares.org/products/storyshares-noah-text.

Noah Text® also provides free tools for educators and students, such as a Chrome extension that converts web pages into its accessible format. The company's efforts extend beyond individual readers, with specialized software developed in partnership with educational institutions to improve literacy in secondary schools and prisons. For dyslexic readers, Noah Text® can be included in Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) or 504 plans, offering a practical solution to accommodate their learning needs.

This partnership represents a pivotal step forward in making literature more inclusive and accessible. By combining Storyshares' mission to provide diverse and relatable content with Noah Text®'s innovative reading technology, the collaboration has the potential to transform the literacy landscape for striving readers worldwide. The initiative not only supports individual readers in improving their skills but also contributes to broader educational goals by fostering a love for reading and learning.
