Accessibility of Library Services to Patrons With Disabilities at Bindura University of Science Education Library
Abstract
The study investigated the accessibility of library services to patrons with disabilities at Bindura University of Science Education (BUSE). The study was carried out because, since the commissioning and the movement of all BUSE library services to the new library, there has not been any study to determine how accommodative the library is to patrons with disabilities. The study made use of International Federation of Libraries and Associations (IFLA) access to libraries for persons with disabilities checklist as its theoretical framework. The study recommended that for BUSE library to improve the accessibility of library services to patrons with disabilities it must craft an institutional policy for people with disabilities at BUSE, provide more resources in alternative formats, as well as provide assistive technologies through establishing a disability centre for patrons with disabilities, training of library staff members to better equip them to serve patrons with disabilities, and physical accessibility of the library by patrons with disability must be improved.
