Requesting Reasonable Accommodations
The DC Public Library encourages people with disabilities to participate in our programs, services, and Board of Trustees meetings.
If you have questions about physical access, need handouts in alternate format, or require American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation, CART, or other reasonable accommodations to participate, fill out this form. If assistance is needed to make a reasonable accommodations request, please contact the DC Public Library Center for Accessibility by email at DCPLaccess@dc.gov or by phone at 202-727-2142.
Please request any accommodations as early as possible, but at least seven (7) days in advance of the program or event, so that proper arrangements may be made. If you have requested ASL interpretation or other accommodation and find you cannot attend, please contact us promptly to cancel your request.
