Library Services to Patrons
with Disabilities
The library staff at public
service desks provides assistance in the use of our services and collections
to patrons with disabilities. If you need more help, please submit requests for
special accommodations to the Director of Public Services, Alberta Bailey (575-7795).
We encourage students with disabilities to register with the Campus Access Office
(575-3104) to become eligible for the services provided by that office, such
as research assistants.
To avoid the delays which may occur during peak service periods or to receive
assistance with extensive research projects, we recommend making an appointment
with a reference librarian by calling the Reference Department at (575-6645),
or you may e-mail questions or requests
to refer@uark.edu
A Visual Tek machine, which magnifies printed materials for the visually impaired,
is available in the Audiovisual Department. Software to magnify text on a computer
screen is available in the computer labs.
