Accessibility Resources

The Americans with Disabilities Act provides civil rights protection to people with disabilities. These rights include equal access to employment, public services, transportation and telecommunications. For information on how UCLA complies with these policies, consult the UCLA ADA/504 Compliance Office(opens in a new tab).

All staff working in public service areas of campus libraries will make every effort to accommodate requests from users with disabilities. For more information on resources available to users with disabilities, please contact us at accessibility@library.ucla.edu(opens in a new tab).

Library staff can help users with disabilities access library stacks. The number of items we can retrieve per day may be limited due to staffing or workload considerations. When materials cannot be paged immediately, staff will arrange to have the material ready the next work day.

Special carts in the Biomedical, Music, Research and Science and Engineering libraries are available to assist in retrieving and transporting materials. Please ask for a cart at the circulation desks in these libraries.

Staff can make photocopies of materials for users with disabilities. Please bring the materials to be copied to any circulation desk, along with a BruinCard that has enough money to pay for the copies. We do not accept cash. When staff are not available to make copies, you can leave the material and your BruinCard and pick up your copies the next work day. All copying must be in compliance with U.S. copyright law.
