SCOPE: Dyslexia is often identified as the inability to read at
the expected levels for age and intelligence, despite ade-
quate instruction and in the absence of hearing, visual, or
neurologic disorders. First described by W. Pringle Morgan
and later by James Hinshelwood as congenital word blind-
ness, the term "dyslexia" was coined in the late 1800s by
Rudolf Berlin. Research on dyslexia was pioneered in the
United States by Samuel Torrey Orton in the 1920s. Today
dyslexia is estimated to occur in 2-8% of the school-age
population. Some research has suggested that dyslexics are
more likely to be left-handed than right-handed, that
dyslexia is more prevalent in males than in females, and
that dyslexia has a genetic basis. This guide is intended
to assist the interested reader in identifying material on
developmental dyslexia in the collections of the Library of
Congress. Not meant to be a comprehensive bibliography, it
is designed--as the name of the series implies--to put the
reader "on target."
