Information for disabled users

Welcome to Disability Support for library users. We aim to provide support for students and staff with a disability to ensure full access to library resources. Students with a disability who require support MUST register with the disability support team within the library.

Some assistive technology software is available on all public PCs in the Library and the Computer Centre. These are accessible using your normal UOB login. This includes Texthelp Read & Write and Inspiration Mind-Mapping software.

What we offer

  • Advice on using the library catalogue, renewing books, or accessing other library resources.
  • Arrangement of one-to-one training sessions on using library databases and branch orientation tours.
  • Access to Assistive Technology.
  • Photocopying and Scanning Service.
  • Item Retrieval Service.
  • Extended Loans.
  • Private Study Room.

We aim to offer assistance and support wherever possible to any user with a disability. Please contact us with your feedback and suggestions on how we can further facilitate equal access to library resources.
