GEORGE BROWN COLLEGE IS COMMITTED TO
PROVIDING EQUAL ACCESS TO EDUCATION FOR
STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES.

 
   

 

The Enhanced Accessibility Library Services Project is looking for staff and students who have a disability or are Deaf, deafened or hard of hearing and use their campus Library Learning Commons (LLC) to participate in an anonymous survey.

Our goal is to learn how the Library Learning Commons can better meet the accessibility needs of library users with disabilities or are Deaf, deafened or hard of hearing.

The first 100 to complete the survey will be eligible for a Tim Horton’s gift certificate upon request to the project coordinator. The survey will be available until February 28, 2010.

The following link will take you directly to the survey.
