Does anyone know of software that is used to determine the reading or
grade level at which a passage of writing is written? I have a patron
who has heard that you can type a passage from a book into (unnamed?)
software program and the program will determine the reading level the
material has been written for.

If you have heard of such software, please contact me by phone, fax, or
email. Thanks.  (mwoodard@statelib.lib.in.us)
