Accessibility FAQs

Librarians have compiled frequently asked questions about resources, technology, and tips and tricks regarding accessibility. Please review the tips and tricks available on the pages listed below for help for using the library:

Shapiro Library Reference Desk (Ask a Librarian)

For research assistance contact the Reference Desk via 24/7 chat, by phone, text, email, or by visiting the second floor of the library. Librarians assist with the research process, learning to utilize our resources and field general citation questions. It may be helpful to the librarian assisting to know if there is a print-related disability and/or if you are using assistive/adaptive technology. This information is optional and confidential but will allow librarians to give specific directions or recommendations of resources and how they can be made accessible.
