Accessible Services
Home Library Service
If you can’t get to the library, the Library can come to you!
If you are unable to access in-person library services due to a print disability or mobility challenges, we can help. Our staff can select materials and deliver them to your home on a regular schedule — ensuring you always have something to read, watch or listen to.
If you require adaptive technologies, our staff can help determine the best way to meet your needs and ensure you get an appropriate device and books that you love.
The library defines print disabilities and mobility challenges as follows:
- Print disability: A print disability is one that prevents or inhibits a person from reading conventional print.
- Mobility challenge: A mobility challenge is an illness, injury or disability that prevents a person from visiting the library or carrying library materials.
