I'm looking for information from other special collection reading rooms about access arrangements for blind or partially sighted readers, especially with regard to manuscript access. Do you have specific equipment that you use to facilitate access to the collections or do you rely on the reader bringing in an assistant to read and interpret the documents for them? Any information will be gratefully received.
