The use of voice recorders provides significant support for neurodivergent users, as it allows for the integration of different communication channels – particularly auditory and visual ones – thereby facilitating the comprehension, retention and organisation of information.

• These tools are particularly effective in:
• strengthening emotional self-regulation skills through personalised, predictable and reassuring messages;
• structuring and making daily routines more accessible, thereby helping to reduce cognitive load;
• improving functional communication, especially where there are difficulties with expression or executive function;
• developing personal autonomy and a sense of self-efficacy;
• creating more inclusive and accessible environments capable of catering for different levels of functioning.

Within the context of the Neurodiversity Service at the DFA/ASP Library, these aids serve as practical and versatile tools that can be easily integrated into mediation activities, reading promotion and learning support. 
Their use helps to further enhance the library’s services from an inclusive perspective, attentive to specific needs and the promotion of diverse ways of learning, communicating and participating.
