Tell Us Survey feedback - chairs

You say: In the silent room on the second floor and third, they should be some chairs with arms to help people with disabilities to sit comfortable  while studying
I feel happy with everything about the Library because most things required is always available. only if you can
provide the arm chairs for disabled student with physical problem to enable them sit and stand when they are
using the library in silent 

We said: thanks for raising your concerns with us. I am very sorry that we don't have any chairs with arms in the
silent areas. We specifically don't buy chairs with arms as they get damaged very easily. I have however taken
two orange seated chairs from the Social Learning space and put one on level 2 and one on level 3. These
chairs are at a PC workstation just inside the doors of the silent floor.  If you would like to make an appointment
with Linda McCulloch
linda.mcculloch@beds.ac.uk
you can discuss your specific requirements and we can investigate whether we can accommodate your needs
In the new library (opening July 2016) there will be standing desks so you can choose to sit or stand while you
work at a PC there will be a wide variety of furniture which should meet your needs.
