Other Readability Resources
Our Readability Widget (currently in the pilot phase) lives on the main Libraries website. If you find this widget useful but wish you could use its features on every website, here are some plugins and other resources you can try. Everything is free unless noted otherwise.
Not every resource has been tested by the Libraries. Before you install anything, make sure you trust it.
