Assistive Services

We respond to the diverse needs of patrons with special needs by providing services and adaptive technologies for accessing and using information with ease.

Assistive Services
System-wide Services

All our locations and website are ADA compliant. We offer large type books, audiobooks on CD, audio-described DVDs, closed caption DVDs, electronic books, and audiobooks for checkout. These materials can be requested for pick-up at any IndyPL location. All public computers feature Windows Magnifier.

Home Delivery Service

Library Express matches screened volunteers with Library users who are unable to visit their local Library branches due to physical/medical limitations. Library Express volunteers deliver Library materials to their assigned patrons on a regular basis as part of an ongoing service. This free service is available to meet both short-term and long-term needs and is open to all qualified Marion County residents. For information, please call Volunteer Resources.
