The university bookshop will be open and copies of the book will be available to purchase.
As part of Sage's Super Quick Skills series (SQS) the book is designed to support students with dyslexia to achieve their best academically, but Sarah says the visual and evidence-based study skills would be useful for all students.
In addition to information about dyslexia, it is full of study skills strategies, motivational techniques and tips for increasing concentration, reducing anxiety and boosting self-esteem.

She said: “I think all the students I see with dyslexia are probably brighter in some ways than other students, because they’re very creative, making connections between ideas.
“I think the creative thinking and the problem solving skills that go with dyslexia are really important in today’s society.”
