Physical Space
The library is located on Level 1 of Hunter Wing. There is lift access from the ground floor of Hunter Wing, opposite Peabody’s coffee shop. The door to the library opens automatically with an access button.
The library provides wheelchair access into the library via the middle gate. We endeavor to improve physical access all the time, for example by moving chairs that have been grouped together by users and keeping an eye to make sure that no objects have caused obstructions to physically navigate the library, throughout the day.
If you ever have a physical access problem or query, please do not hesitate to approach the Library Helpdesk, and ask one of our members of staff to help.

The library aims to provide signage that is uniform across all spaces and conforms to accessible font and colour guidelines. As a result of our student focus groups in July 2023, we are appraising our library signage to ensure that its meets accessibility requirements (large print, colour, font).
