The UC Libraries continues to promote an inclusive, supportive, and learner-centered environment by introducing additional accommodation and spaces that address the diverse needs of students.
To assist learners with visual challenges, magnifying glasses are now available for borrowing at the Media Center, KGSJHS Library, and CJE Library. These assistive tools help make printed materials more accessible, enabling students to read and conduct research more comfortably and effectively.
The library has also established an SDG Corner, a dedicated space that promotes awareness of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) while providing students with a welcoming area for learning and well-being.
Designed with comfortable seating and an open environment, the SDG Corner serves as a place where students can read, collaborate, reflect, or simply take a break from academic demands. By offering a space for relaxation and mental recharge, the library recognizes the importance of supporting students’ mental health alongside their academic growth.
These initiatives reflect the UC Libraries’ commitment to accessibility, inclusivity, student wellness, and sustainable development, ensuring that the library remains a safe and supportive space for all learners.
