Circulation: Library Services for Patrons with Disabilities

Buley Library provides access to materials, information and services for individuals with disabilities. Our library’s front entrance library is accessible through the power-equipped doors. In the building, every floor is accessible by elevator and each floor has wheelchair accessible restrooms.

  • Our library services for patrons with disabilities are contingent upon staff availability and reasonable accommodation. Advance notice is appreciated when more extensive help is required.

Library services for persons with disabilities may include:

  • Retrieving library materials for library patrons who are unable to access the collection
  • Assistance with photocopying a reasonable number of pages from journal articles
  • Reference assistance with the library online catalog and other electronic databases
  • Library in-house use of special equipment such as the Liberty Plus, a portable CCTV that enlarges print material

Students can also get additional assistance and information by contacting the Student Supportive Services at (203)392-6810/26814 or the Center for Adaptive Technology at (203) 392-5799.
