Disability & Dyslexia

The library provides a wide range of services for disabled  & dyslexic members and tries wherever possible to be responsive to your needs.

We use the social model of disability to provide equality of access by removing social and physical barriers to our resources.

For enquiries about library support please email Mathieu Lubrun the Disability Support Librarian (pictured) or phone 0208 938 2223.

You can also speak to any member of library staff or email the library.

If you would like library support and did not complete a Library Disability & Dyslexia Support Form as part of your registration, please download and complete one HERE then email it to the library or bring it with you next time you visit.

All information will be treated in the strictest confidence.

The video embedded below explains more about the support available – to listen make sure you have sound enabled on your computer.
