Overview

Although the whole building is wheelchair accessible with great lift access etc. some areas are tricky to manoeuvre independently due to heavy wooden double doors. The bottom floor (new extension) however is fantastic in terms of access.

Transport & Parking

3 on street disabled bays directly in front of the level access entry point to the library (Granville street).

Access

Disabled access to he building is ideal with 3 automatic double doors taking you into the ground floor with a cafe, computer suite, visual impairment unit and 2 lifts to all floors.

Toilets

There were 2 disabled toilets on the ground floor that i used. Both were perfect for me and very spacious, but 1 of the toilets had 2 single doors to go through that were close together which could prove an issue for anyone in an electric wheelchair.

Staff

Staff were extremely helpful and took time to walk me through the free wifi connection process (a little time consuming first time around). They could not do enough for me throughout my visit.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

There is free wifi connectivity on the ground floor which made this a perfect venue for my agile office. The downstairs cafe has little work stations that allow you to set up your own laptop etc and work while enjoying a tea, coffee (and in my case a large slice of carrot cake)
