CLAUD Summer Conference 2003
Mental Health: An Emerging Issue for Academic Libraries
Streatham Court
University of Exeter
Friday 11th July 10.00 am - 4.30 pm
CLAUD is a consortium of librarians in Higher Education
networking to improve library access for disabled users in
the South and Southwest of England. In its well-established
annual Summer Conference series, CLAUD offers a forum for
finding practical solutions to the difficulties involved in
providing truly accessible library services. Further
details of CLAUD can be found on our website:
http://www.bris.ac.uk/claud/welcome.html
The provision of accessible services to users with mental
health difficulties is a challenge to library staff. This
Conference aims to give information and advice to front
line staff and others. The morning sessions will give an
overview of the wide spectrum of mental health issues and
how they relate to the academic sector. The afternoon
workshops explore practical issues in service provision.
