iPad Pro devices for in-library use for people with a disability

An iPad Pro is available at each library for in-library use for people people with a disability or those who find a traditional computer difficult to use.

The iPad Pros can be booked for use in the libraries. The devices have a 12.9-inch screen and include accessibility settings for vision and hearing and some physical and motor settings. Useful and fun apps, including the libraries' digital resources, have been downloaded to the devices. iPad Pros may be booked to people who are library members, however library membership can be organised at the time of booking.

Some people find tablets easier to use than personal computers, so the iPad Pros may be an option to try, particularly for people who are new to using digital devices. One-to-one Tech Help appointments at the libraries are available for people requiring help with using mobile phones, tablets or computers. Please contact library staff if you have any questions.
