SERVICES TO GROUPS & INDIVIDUALS WITH RESTRICTED LIBRARY ACCESS |
Tracking Record: Date Approved: 07/27/05 |
The Hennepin County Library provides materials and services to meet the information and recreation needs of persons whose access to library services and materials is limited. These services, usually referred to as Outreach Services, are provided based on sensory, mental, physical, health, or behavioral conditions, or lack of transportation.
No fines are charged on materials borrowed through Outreach Services programs. Individuals served by mail are accountable for lost or damaged materials. Groups served through Outreach Services and individuals served by volunteers are not held responsible for lost or damaged materials.
In addition, Outreach services works with other library sections to meet the language and cultural needs of new immigrant populations while creating and improving services to these groups.
