Assistive Technology Suite


The Assistive Technology Suite can be found on the first floor of the library.  If you need help locating this, please ask at the Library Helpdesk.  It is a priority area for students who are registered with Disability & Neurodiversity. It is a quiet place where registered students can work and use the equipment provided or use their own devices.  The area has two adjustable desks, standing work areas, a small booth and some quiet areas for study.
