If any user requires more than a couple of minutes of attention then staff may be able to recommend a self-learning package or to provide details of courses available locally - some of which may be held on library premises.

As an aid for visually impaired people, (External) Supernova reader magnifier software is installed on all PCs, enabling people with visual impairments to magnify the screen. It also read information aloud, so that users can listen to the computer instead of looking at the screen.
