Description of the facility

The library is well accessible. The biggest limitation for accessibility is the layout of the outdoor area. The adapted parking space is marked but too small. The path to the entrance runs along a road with a slope.

All floors of the building are accessible by elevator. The reception desk is located by the entrance. The building is well-lit and clearly marked. Adapted sanitary facilities are in the basement.

The event hall is located in the neighboring building (old library), which is accessible via a passage on the first floor. The seats in the hall are movable.
