Assistive Technology Rooms
We have 4 Assistive Technology Rooms in the Perry Library. Please see Assistive Technology Rooms for more information.
Extra Help in the Library
You can arrange for someone to pick up and return items for you. They will need to bring your ID card, proof of their own identity, and a letter from you saying that they have permission to use your card. We are also happy to come with you to look for books and other items in the library. Just ask at the help desk. If you need a helper or support worker to accompany you when using the library then please contact us online to arrange support at library@lsbu.ac.uk
