For Users With Disabilities

To create a more inclusive environment for learning, the Library has implemented effective measures to accommodate the specific needs of users with disabilities.  For example, the aisles between shelves are wide enough for the physically disadvantaged users to move around.  The Library staff are pleased to help users with disabilities access the computer facilities and to fetch materials for them from bookshelves.
